It already is done in an rsync friendly way.
The file names in the potato_test directory tree do not change between
point revisions, so if you also mirror that part of the hierarchy, and
use the --hard-links switch to ensure that the hard links are
maintained, then the images will be downloaded over the top of the
potato_test files, and then the hard links will be installed into the
new versioned directory.
Cheers, Phil.
