I have a sequence of directories that have many multiply (cross)hardlinked files, and I'd like to see what their "true" sizes are. These dirs are backup directories created with something like: rsync -a --delete --link-dest=/mnt/bkup/backup_A/ \ /dir_to_back_up /mnt/bkup/backup_B/ By "true" sizes I mean this: Say backup_A was created first. If I do `du_true backup_A' I shd. see its size. Now I delete some files in "/dir_to_back_up" and create some other new files. Now I create "backup_B" with the above rsync command. I'd like for my mythical `du_true' to compute the incremental change in size from backup_A to backup_B. This seems like a non-trivial problem but maybe I'm just missing something simple.
