Remove the ambiguous --follow option #5

@defuse

Description

@defuse

The --follow option is ambiguous and I doubt anyone is ever going to use it. What does it even mean? Suppose there's some symlink to /foo/bar/ in the original. Then does it mean the backup should have a complete recursive copy of /foo/bar/, or just a symlink to it like the original?

The option should be removed until we find a valid use case for it. Remove it in the add-integration-tests branch so it'll be tested before it gets merged back in.
