That's what has always bothered me about the symlinks support: it's inherently non-portable, opens up tricky questions about how it "should" behave, and it "might be handy for some" (it's not generally needed - i've never used it, and never missed it). i do, however, agree that (like diff-follows-rename) if you have a need for it, it's a handy feature to have. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
