    Summary: Consolidate duplicate files via hardlinks
    Description: 
    This package contains hardlink, an utility which consolidates duplicate
    files in one or more directories using hardlinks.
    
    hardlink traverses one or more directories searching for duplicate files.
    When it finds duplicate files, it uses one of them as the master.  It then
    removes all other duplicates and places a hardlink for each one pointing
    to the master file.  This allows for conservation of disk space where
    multiple directories on a single filesystem contain many duplicate files.
    
    Since hard links can only span a single filesystem, hardlink is only
    useful when all directories specified are on the same filesystem.
