Are Hot Backups Incremental?

If I do a cold backup once a week, and a hot backup every night, can I write over the tarred hot backup file every night and still restore the database completely by restoring the cold, then the last tar file from the hot backup? OR .... Do I need to create a different tarred hot backup file for every day that follows the last cold backup in order to have a full restore? All advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
