I see several hard links being grouped as duplicates, which seems like a bug.
Running fclones 0.34.0
For example when running fclones group for dir "a", I get a group with the following files included:
a/b/snap.1/file
a/b/snap.2/file (this is a HARDLINK of 1)
a/c/snap.1/file
a/c/snap.2/file (this is a HARDLINK of 3)
Indeed all of the above 1-4 are the same file, but they are 2x2 hardlinks there, and fclones seems to ignore that.
Is this a bug?
The examples in the documentation mention running fclones group dir1 dir2, but is the same working as expected when running fclones group on a common parent directory of dir1 and dir2 (like dir "a" above)?
Also the sizes reported when running are large, like hardlinks are not detected maybe.
For example see the output below.
The real size of scanned directory is about 250 GB, but several TB are reported while grouping, probably because of hardlinks.
