I have a client on which about 100 GB of data has been moved from one
directory to another -- otherwise its exactly the same.

As I understand it, since the data has been moved, BackupPC 3 will
transfer all the data again (and discard it once it realizes the data
is already in the pool) i.e. it does not skip the transfer of each
file even though the checksum is identical to an existing file in the
pool.

I am using the rsync transfer method.

Is there a workaround to prevent all 100 GB of data from being
transferred again?

Regards,
Raman
