rsync - Dec 2014 - Re[2]: --link-dest --inplace updates files without unlinking. What to do?

I don't specify --partial-dir. As you can see from the script, rsync at
first copies to "in-progress", and then renames this to (for example)
2014-12-01-000000. So, if rsync interrupts, then at the next run the script will
end "in-progress" (all partial files will be done) and then will
rename this dir to 2014-12-01-000000. So, there never will be partial files in
finished snapshots.

Then you still have the problem of already created links being updated.

No. Now there is no --inplace. So, rsync will never write new file directly into
old one (without unlinking). If there already is old file and it needs updating,
then rsync will write into something like .file-He4gw, and then it will rename
this file to its right name. This new file will not have any hardlinks to old
files
