Title: Don't follow symlinks.

Backups shouldn't follow symbolic links.

I haven't been able to actually compile and test this change, because it uses out-of-date packages, and my various efforts to update various packages all ended in failure, when I discovered that the latest versions of some of the required packages use google-collections (which is obsolete and no longer maintained), and this package itself uses guava instead, and google-collections and guava are incompatible.

I don't know if anybody is maintaining this anymore. If so, then I think it needs some work to be compilable with an up-to-date java. My java mojo is not strong enough to get it done.
