Oh and did I say symlinks in source code is a messy practice?
Would be curious why you have them there in first place ...

When we are already talking about symlinks ...
there is still the bug with looping symlinks (which point to the same
dir), where indexer will just get stuck and loops through them
so ... beware of such symlinks, they can make your indexing take days ;)

Haven't looked into the related code yet, but in general symlinks
should be silently accepted/indexed (even when pointing outside
the project/repo dir), if the user wants that. Options like
FollowSymlinks and FollowSymlinksIfOwnerMatch [otherwise IgnoreSymlinks]
comes into mind ...
However, wrt. this feature, IMHO waiting for JDK7 (java.nio.file.*)
would be beneficial.
