Hello,

Is there a method to exclude hardlinks from being transferred which exist
within the data set to be transferred, yet are recreated on the other end?
  (using url-copy or any other tool)

An example.  In the below scenario only two files would actually cross the
wire,  file1.gz and subdir/file1.gz.  file2.gz would be detected as a
hardlink and excluded,   file2.gz's hardlink would be recreated on the
remote end.

cp /opt/xfer/file1.gz /home/globus/xfer/file1.gz
cp /opt/xfer/file1.gz /home/globus/xfer/subdir/file1.gz
ln /home/globus/xfer/file1.gz /home/globus/xfer/file2.gz


cheers,
greg
