       Archive extraction has optional support to extract all-zero chunks as
       holes in a sparse file.
     * Some filesystem specific attributes, like btrfs NOCOW, see :ref:`platforms`.
+    * For hardlinked symlinks, the hardlinking can not be archived (and thus,
+      the hardlinking will not be done at extraction time). The symlinks will
+      be archived and extracted as non-hardlinked symlinks, see :issue:`2379`.
 
 Are there other known limitations?
