Anyone know where --linkhard went?

I have two versions of fdupes handy (two different distros).  One is 1.50-PR2-3 (as seen in Linux Mint, Ubunu) and the other is 1.50-PR2-4 as seen in siduction.  While I have --linkhard support in subversion 3, I do not in subversion 4.  

Thanks,

Does the changelog tell you anything about why --linkhard support was dropped or it was made as part of another option? You could file a bug and get an answer on that

EDIT: found a bug report where the option was removed - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=677419

Hopefully this will be corrected in a future release
