My knee-jerk reaction is: * The --no-index mode should default to your --follow-symlinks behaviour, without any option to turn it on or off. * If normal "diff" that follows symlinks by default has an option to disable it, then it is OK to also add --no-follow-symlinks that is only valid in the --no-index mode, so that we can mimick it better (I do not think this is the case, though). * Other modes should not follow symbolic links ever, no need for a new option. In any case, I'd advise you not to reroll this too quickly and frequently until the end of this cycle. During a feature freeze, I won't take new topics in 'pu' as that would add more things I need to worry about, and if you reroll in too quick succession, it will become harder to identify the latest set and queue after the release. Thanks.
