Subject: [PATCH 5/5] linux-firmware: Hardlink any identical firmware files
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2022 09:48:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220329094856.482837-5-michael.tremer@ipfire.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220329094856.482837-1-michael.tremer@ipfire.org>
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 716 bytes --]
Some files are identical which is why we don't need to ship them mutiple
times. This will save about 13 MiB of disk space and presumably the same
on the compressed distro image.
