I read somewhere about 2 years ago,  that it automagically de-duped data 
when it detected I was copying the same file to different directories. 
It's not deliberate, but I have often found copies of my files amongst 
files I have backed up for my wife (where I have put copies of my 
important stuff occasionally.    And more common if I rsync a usb to a 
new destination - the usb I use at a volunteer job with portable apps on 
a foreign PC.   I found what I think was that article the other week; 
and it now talks about a manual process to de-dupe the data. I don't 
believe I could have skipped the most important paragraph in the 
article.     I prefer rdfind -makehardlinks.    Writing to btrfs feels 
quicker than ext4

But why use btrfs on a system partition. I like to try new stuff. Like I 
get a nagging thought of trying arch linux regularly. I resist 
mostly......   I should use sid as my daily driver, but I'm not good at 
asking for help; and I get the feeling that some people here would want 
to tell me something like 'I made my bed, lay in it.'

  So I make do with using developer versions of firefox & thunderbird 
and beta libreOffice (24.02 I think) They are on a separate partition 
from my system.
