Package: hardlink
Version: 0.1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hello there,

I just tried to link a few backup files together, but didn't want to
recurse into subdirectories. So I tried running hardlink as this:

| hardlink -ptomv *.tar

which did not work because hardlink silently skips all non-direcoty
files and thus did nothing above because I only gave it regular files.

The manpage actually documents this behaviour:

| hardlink [option]...  [directory]...

Anyway, I don't see a reason not to support also comparing directly
given regular files. Please make hardlink also take regular files as
arguments.

thank you,
      Uli / youam
