Obsoleted, tomlord took the core get --hard-links patch and ran with it. Thanks for proving the concept...

Note that the gnu cp option for this is `--link' (short: `-l'); it might be a good idea to use the same option name for tla.

I've done the same than for get, implement an option called "hard-links".
Woks for me (tm).

The same warnings than for get apply:
BE CAREFUL with hardlinks!!

TODO


-Add validation code, using inode-sigs, to the library operations to
eliminate the risks of corrupting the archive in case that you modify it.
This validation will be worth to all the routines that use libraries as
it will check its validity.

Availability
------------

You can cherry-pick the patch to implement it directly from:
