Great, I've taken the nightly rar and built it.
Now we wait :-)
rsync 2.6.9 --link-dest does
- not hardlink special files (symlink, device nodes)
This doesn't take much space, but it clutters the logfiles
- change owner/groupship on the hardlink
So if I use a hard-linked-tree-per-day, it changes history also
Is this still the same with newer versions?
With rsync 3 pre8 and Mac OS 10.5.1:
