Nah, there must be bigger fish to fry in the new build system
integration, and I have a feeling that by the time we are done, we
may have lost the largest need for hardlinks.

I have a feeling that in _some_ future, we may not be installing
"git-add" and friends for the built-in commands anywhere on disk,
which is historically the primary thing we use hardlinks for to
conserve both disk space and inodes.

Thanks.
