Hi, I can't manage to get rsync's --link-dest option working. Here is a step by step script which doesn't produce the good results.
# create test dir mkdir testrsync cd testrsync mkdir orig echo "abcd" > orig/testfile # create a mirror rsync -apog orig/ mirror/ # create another mirror using link-dest rsync -apog --link-dest=mirror/ orig/ mirror2/ # look at inodes ls -li mirror/ ls -li mirror2/ The inodes differs, even if timestamps, modes and size contents don't. What's wrong ? I'm running linux-2.6 (but I don't think that's related), and tried with both rsync 2.5.6 and the current CVS version.
