Yum is also rsync happy. That's where our --link-dest backups always break due
to too many hard links.
----------
What would be "too many"? -- a few million? I have files in a test
setup that have over 7000 files hard linked (only an 8 byte file, but since
minimum block size is 4K, that would be 28MB w/o the hard link v. 4k with.
It would NOT be good for rsync to start breaking
links w/standard options. Maybe a new option
to allow link breaking?
