           Summary: rsync doesn't log hardlink-copies using --link-dest
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.9
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: Kontakt at Doebeling.de
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


If I perform a backup like this, new files in $dest which hardlink to $link
doesn't result any output on tty or logfile, even if I use -v or -i.

rsync -ahv --link-dest=$link $source $dest

-----------------------

EXAMPLE: Without using --link-dest => everything works fine

rsync -ahv $source $dest

sending incremental file list
source/
source/file1
source/file2
source/file3
source/file4

sent 420 bytes  received 92 bytes  1.02K bytes/sec
total size is 130  speedup is 0.25

-----------------------

EXAMPLE: Using --link-dest => Files get copied (hardlinked), but I don't get
any information:

rsync -ahv --link-dest=$link $source $dest

sending incremental file list
source/

sent 118 bytes  received 16 bytes  268.00 bytes/sec
total size is 130  speedup is 0.97
