The contents of what GIT maintains as symlinks are plain textual paths
and are therefore handled like every other plain text. So things are
consistent as they are, including the warning. If symlink contents aka
their paths wouldn't be treated as plain text like all other texts, you
wouldn't be able to diff anything anyway.

So the real question is: How do you think symlinks should be diffed?
As textual path would be the wrong answer, as that's what's done
right now.

Alternatively you would need to discuss why the missing newline ending
is warned about for ANY textual content, as it's up to the user if
that is necessary or not anyway. GIT can't decide such things.

And besides, one needs to make sure where that warning comes from at
all as well. Is it really GIT itself or some default text editor
involved like VI or ...

To make a long story short: I don't think it's worth it to report that
as a bug and I guess it won't be "fixed".

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Thorsten Schöning
