Subject: when does git start caring about symlinks?
Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2010 17:50:31 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ichk2q$bbu$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
I have a question on how symlinks work and at what point git starts caring
about them. If dirA/repoA/.git has no symlinks and I copy it to
dirB/repoB/.git (ie. cp -rp /dirA/repoA/.git /dirB/repoB/.git), but /dirB is
a symlink to /x/dirB does that mean that repoB contains symlinks (I suspect
that repoB may be made up of all symlinks at this point)? In other words,
if I parallel test repoA and repoB am I running a true parallel test or are
the repos different because repoA has no symlinks and repoB has symlinks?
v/r,
Neal
