The core problem is that sometimes it is desirable to follow symbolic links and sometimes it is not. And it is not always obvious which choice to make. Often the choice depends on context which is only available way up in the call stack and which is not passed down into the routines that are actually making the choice. Support for symbolic links is problematic. It has always been so. This is true for all software, not just Fossil. . > > more important: is a fix/work-around possible (apart from telling me to do > it myself which I would have a hard time with ...) Hold on there, honcho. We are not your employees. This is a community effort. Expressing impatience with the debugging process is not an effective strategy for recruiting volunteer helpers to work on the problem. -- D.
