So we can do something like that :

 - copy cauldron directory to directory .tmp-mageia-1
 - rsync cauldron to .tmp-mageia-1 until release day
 - on release day, we make hardlinks between files from '.tmp-mageia-1'
   and '1' directories
 - files in directory '1' become immediatly available on mirrors (as they
   are hardlinks to files in .tmp-mageia-1 already uploaded)
 - after a few days we remove .tmp-mageia-1

Does it look correct ?
