Hardlinks multiple copies of the same file

Hardlink is a tool which detects multiple copies of the same file and replaces them with hardlinks. Amongst other things, it can be used to merge identical, duplicate files in backup trees and save space. The idea has been taken from http://code.google.com/p/hardlinkpy/, but the code has been written from scratch and licensed under the MIT license.
