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."
