add symbolic links managment
----------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-343
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-343
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Wish
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
Environment: linux, ubuntu
Reporter: Godet Gilles
i need to buid archives ( tar for example ) with symbolic links
the plugin build an archive with a file containing the destination of the link,
not the link itself
=> the plugin need an option to know if deferencement of links is needed
this is just like -h option of tar
-h, --dereference
don't dump symlinks; dump the files they point to
actually, if you do an archive of /lib, for example, many file will be in
double with différent names. extract of archive will not be the exactly the
same as the source of the archive. => this is a test !
