  Hello,

I just read "regress.py" and I am concerned by this comment:
<<
Currently this does not recover hard links.  This may make the
regressed directory take up more disk space, but hard links can still
be recovered.
>>

As I use rdiff-backup for my own laptop backups, it "often" fails and
regress for many reasons (no more disk space, got into sleep state...)

So do I understand well that there is a potential disk space leak in my
repository after multiple regressions leaving "non recovered hard
links" ?

If so, how should I evaluate this disk space loss and eventually recover
it "by hand" ?

Regards
