Yes, thanks. I know about hard links. But how would it impact the size
or performance of my backups ?
Well, if a file is hard linked multiple times, it'll be backed up
multiple times. Therefor, a filesystem with tons of hard links will take
a really long time to back up. :)
And is there a way to find the number of HARD links ?
Find should do this... let's see... Yep, according to "man find", %n in
its internal printf will give you the number of hard links to a file.
So, something like this should give you useful output about what files
have multiple hard links:
find . -printf "%n %p\n" | sort -r
