OK, it's pretty long so I won't post the whole thing, but the important
lines are

rsyncoptions="--archive --progress --verbose --recursive"

"$rsync" $rsyncoptions --hard-links --link-dest "$previous" "$source" "$current"

I have it create destination dirs like

/backup/2024-01-04_22:26:35/
/backup/2024-01-12_20:21:02/
/backup/2024-01-20_23:19:11/
/backup/2024-01-26_23:04:31/
/backup/2024-02-01_22:13:38/
/backup/2024-02-14_00:12:37/
/backup/2024-03-25_23:52:52/
/backup/2024-05-06_22:47:31/
/backup/2024-05-12_22:08:31/
/backup/2024-06-12_23:39:44/

so $previous and $current are two of those, and $source is /files .
