Package: rsync
Version: 3.1.3-6
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

while running rsyc -avH, I got this assertion failure (non-repeatable):

   rsync: hlink.c:132: match_gnums: Assertion `gnum >= hlink_flist->ndx_start' 
failed.
   Aborted

I suspect (but don't know) that this is due to me concurrently running
a program on the source file tree that hardlinks files with identical
contents, such replacing files with other files with identical content and
name, but possibly different mtime etc.

I suspect that a failed assertion is not the expected handling of this
condition and a better response or error message is intended.
