Stefan Seifert commented on SLING-1778:
---------------------------------------
no, our patch includes the initial patch from julian, so only our patch has to
be applied.
but the major part of our patch is the work initially contributed by julian,
updated and enhanced by us.

> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: JCR

> I have implemented a ResourceProvider, which allows to create symlink nodes
> in the JCR repository. A symlink node has a sling:symlinkTarget property,
> which should contain a valid JCR path. JCR content from the
> sling:symlinkTarget path is then exposed below the symlink node.
> There is a mixin node type, sling:Symlink with a mandatory property
> sling:symlinkTarget and an optional property sling:overlayable. Additionally,
> there is a convenience node type, sling:SymlinkResource, which extends from
> sling:symlinkTarget and nt:unstructured.
> ResourceProvider instances are registered for existing symlinks when the
> bundle is started. Modifications are taken care of via JCR observation.
> To get started:
> * apply the attached patch to a trunk checkout
> * build and install the bundle
> * create a symlink node, pointing to some existing content
> * access the symlink node e.g. via a browser
