fooRunning jdupes on data (currently in os x, but my question is a bit more generic). This is the specific jdupes command: jdupes -r -L ~/Desktop/Folders/ | tee ~/Desktop/Folders/jdupes.txt -> jdupes is finding dupes, and linking multiple copies to the original first source that is found that matches. The issue I just realized is if I have 5 text files that are the same, and they all get relinked to the12:10
foosame source now, but if I change one of those text files... that change is reflecfted across all previously found "copies" since they're hard linked to the same source. I can possibly seeing this being an issue with code backups I have or code, or maybe git data, or database data. Can anyone here speak to this concern? Is it valid?12:10
lotuspsychjefoo: a dupes question on OsX in #ubuntu-server?12:12
foolotuspsychje: sigh. I run this same command on my ubuntu servers, if that helps. It's not an OS X specific concept...12:13
fooI'm trying to understand the implications of this, I didn't realize this nuance12:14
fooI generally rune jdupes with intent to free up space12:14
