hierarchy under its own directory. This patch changes the code to attempt to link() the files instead. Should the linking fail (typically, because the source and the target may be on different filesystems), the code will still fall back to copying. The patch is submitted to the (dormant) author: http://www.epmhome.org/str.php?L21+P0+S-2+C0+I0+E0+M10+Q Approved by: maintainer (maho)
