a simple command-line utility that implements directory hardlinks on Mac OsX
to link: hlink source destination
to unlink: hlink -u destination

I got the idea from some stackoverflow questions.. and decided to create a lib out if it that everybody can use

makecommand
brew install http ...
To create a hard link:
hlink source destination
To remove the link:
hlink -u destination
