I'd love to have a way to follow symlinks, but this needs to be done with care: when following symlinks, writing to a link may mean writing outside the Git repository, which brings some security concerns. Not that following symlinks has to be insecure, but we'd have to make sure that it does not allow a malicious user to e.g. setup a symlink to ~/.bashrc and then write to it. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
