Yeah, I know, we're trying to move stuff around, that's not infrequent, given the amount of data my folks generate.
And that's the other place that backuppc will help. If you move a file that is already in an existing backup, backuppc's rsync will copy it over the network because it doesn't have a match in that location, but when it goes to add the compressed copy to the pool it will notice that there is already a file with identical content there and use a hardlink instead of needing additional space.
