Subject: Always use 64-bit ino_t and dev_t internally, so that we can detect
X-Git-Url: https://mattmccutchen.net/rsync/rsync.git/commitdiff_plain/6abd193fe3f8e7b986c388e7642adc08516e8279

Always use 64-bit ino_t and dev_t internally, so that we can detect
hardlinks if coming from a larger platform.  Add heaps of comments
explaining why this is so.
