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

I am talking about metadata. Permissions, ownerships, etc. If a link
exists in the target and needs a metadata change then rsync will do a
chmod, chown, whatever which updates all the instances of the file.
If there hadn't already been a link there rsync would have written out
an entire new file to have the new metadata.
