You are mistaken. It works on data extent level and has nothing to do with links. You are probably confused by the "link" in "reflink".
my problem is this part
https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Deduplication.html#file-based-dedupli...
where reflink is only part of the use. I may have to experiment
the tool I need would replace duplicates files with symlinks (not necessarily with btrfs) so spâce is got but files are still where they belong :-)
"traditional" filesystem independent deduplication replaces identical files with hardlinks (not softlinks).
what application??
I don't have one yet. This is the question I asked the last week and I'm still studying. I have managed to create those links with rsync itself when the filenames match. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.5 (Laicolasse))
