I should also mention that there are totally valid reasons why the dir might be huge on day4.

The same goes for differences in preserved xattrs,

You could rsync the current day4 dir to a day4.new dir, and list all the prior days as --link-dest options. Make sure that you're using the same xatt/acl options as your official backup command (the options may or may not be present) so that you are preserving the same level of info as the backup.

Re: Enabling easier contributions to rsync

I've decided to give hosting it on github a try, especially since there's been a lot of nice contributions lately. Hopefully this will make it easier for both the people sending patches as well as for me to snag the changes. I'll continue to push changes to the samba git as well. Here's the new
