git help config says: "core.symlinks If false, symbolic links are checked out as small plain files that contain the link text. git-update-index(1) and git-add(1) will not change the recorded type to regular file. Useful on filesystems like FAT that do not support symbolic links.
The default is true, except git-clone(1) or git-init(1) will probe and set core.symlinks false if appropriate when the repository is created." My vague recollection is that NTFS has a sort of symlink-like thing but that they have the tendency to break stuff (e.g. virus scanners get confused).
