Dear All,

I need to backup a directory with multiple large files of the form
snapshot/foo-yymmddhhMMSS.log  which are snapshots of foo.log.

Conceptually,  what I would like to do is for each file

ln -s snapshot/foo-yymmddhhMMSS.log intermediate/foo.log

rdiff-backup intermediate  backup

Can anyone suggest a sane way of doing this?   I'm mounting snapshot across
a network and I would like to avoid unnecessarily copying files.

Thanks, Steve
