[Pulp-list] Duplicated packages in CentOS mirror (Pulp 2.8.2)

Hi,

I have a new Pulp installation (2.8.2) running on CentOS 7.2, and have 
run into an oddity when creating a local mirror of an upstream CentOS 
repo. After syncing from the upstream, my local mirror has two copies 
(symlinks to the same file) of each RPM in the repo. It is perhaps best 
explained with a picture:

The upstream repository looks like this:

.
├── images
│   └── ...
├── LiveOS
│   └── ...
├── Packages
│   ├── 389-ds-base-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
│   ├── 389-ds-base-devel-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
│   ├── ...
│   └── zziplib-utils-0.13.62-5.el7.x86_64.rpm
└── repodata
     └── ...

But my local mirror looks like this:

.
├── images
│   └── ...
├── LiveOS
│   └── ...
├── Packages
│   ├── 389-ds-base-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
│   ├── 389-ds-base-devel-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
│   ├── ...
│   └── zziplib-utils-0.13.62-5.el7.x86_64.rpm
├── repodata
│   └── ...
├── 389-ds-base-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
├── 389-ds-base-devel-1.3.4.0-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
├── ...
└── zziplib-utils-0.13.62-5.el7.x86_64.rpm

Each package in the Packages directory of the upstream is duplicated in 
the root of my local mirror. Is there a simple explanation for this 
behaviour?

For reference, the feed url for my repository is 
http://mirror.xnet.co.nz/pub/centos/7/os/x86_64/

Thanks,
Richard
