Since the purpose of the --link-dest option is to create lots of extra hard links to save space, I didn't think it needed to clutter up the main point going on there. It's true that the ancestral linking of the files can keep files linked together that used to be linked together, but only if a prior run had used -H, so I thought that the warning about the -H option was sufficient. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
