Freedup eliminates duplicate files using links and
thus reduces the amount of used disk space within
one or more file systems. Freedup searches all
provided file system trees for identical files and
links them together. If the devices differ, a
symbolic link is used, otherwise a hard link by
default. Many options allow you to modify the file
comparison, the linking behavior, and the output.
The input is either taken from external pipe input
or from an internally generated pipe using find.

This release brings improved documentation, error
free compilation with cygwin, and improved
Makefiles. Now an RPM package for cygwin is
provided, too. There are no functional changes.
