Subject: Issue in man page hardlink.1
Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2021 18:51:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210816165155.GA4049@Debian-50-lenny-64-minimal> (raw)

Without further ado, the following was found:

Issue: Missing markup (for hardlink)

"B<hardlink> assumes that the trees it operates on do not change during "
"operation. If a tree does change, the result is undefined and potentially "
"dangerous. For example, if a regular file is replaced by a device, hardlink "
"may start reading from the device. If a component of a path is replaced by a "
"symbolic link or file permissions change, security may be compromised. Do "
"not run hardlink on a changing tree or on a tree controlled by another user."
