This is OK for me. I care about file contents, not metadata. =Askar Safin http://vk.com/safinaskar Kazan, Russia

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 OK, I was just making sure that you understood that. BTW, if you want it to always have that behavior (it can save a lot of backup space) you can use the old cp -al method instead of --link-dest so that the target dir starts out completely populated.

What is benefits? Even metadata will not leak to old files? =Askar Safin http://vk.com/safinaskar Kazan, Russia
