note that on a large file system with a large number of files, thats 
VERY expensive, as rsync has to keep a list of every inode number on the 
whole file system and verify each directory entry isn't pointing to an 
inode its already linked.  if there's a few million files, this data 
structure gets HUGE in memory.
