Thanks for the clarification. rsync is so fickle with it's deduplication that it doesn't handle file attribute changes either due to hard link limitations. rsync does a lot to maintain file attributes across heterogeneous systems, does ddar address this issue as well?

ddar doesn't care. The intention is that you use ddar together with a tool that will do what you need, such as tar as in the examples. tar will deal with file attributes; ddar will deal with the de-duplication.
