Managing redundancy

Some files are intentionally redundant in each application bundle, so that each application bundle is standalone. The redundant files can be converted to hardlinks using

hardlink . -v -t -n # Dry run (change nothing, only explain)
hardlink . -v -t

This can be useful for making a change in all of the redundant copies at once.
