Summary: "rdiff-backup --verify" erroneously warns of

_______________________________________________________
Details:
This is with 1.2.5, but I don't see anything in the changelogs to suggest
that this has been addressed.
When verifying a repository, rdiff-backup fails to take hardlinked files into
account. (As you know, these files only have the SHA1 digest recorded once in
the metadata; the other entries have the inode/device information, but no
hash.)
The end result is that some rather confusing (if ultimately harmless)
warnings are printed out:
$ rdiff-backup --verify /srv/backup
Warning: Cannot find SHA1 digest for file
var/log/ntpstats/loopstats.20050403,
perhaps because this feature was added in v1.1.1
Warning: Cannot find SHA1 digest for file
var/log/ntpstats/peerstats.20050403,
perhaps because this feature was added in v1.1.1
Every file verified successfully.
(This was for a repository *created* with 1.2.5, so the "perhaps" bit is
completely bogus.)
