+One note of caution: if you use bf(--keep-dirlinks), you must trust all
+the symlinks in the copy! If it is possible for an untrusted user to
+create their own symlink to any directory, the user could then (on a
+subsequent copy) replace the symlink with a real directory and affect the
+content of whatever directory the symlink references. For backup copies,
+you are better off using something like a bind mount instead of a symlink
+to modify your receiving hierarchy.
