The virtual file system code incorrectly treated symlinks as directories instead of regular files. This meant symlinks were not included even if they are listed in the list of files returned by the core.virtualFilesystem hook proc. Fixes #25 Signed-off-by: Ben Peart <[email protected]>

Can a link be a directory or a file? If the link can be a directory do we need to do something different?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The code in treat_one_path() (the normal git excludes logic replaced by the virtual file system hashmap based code) treats DT_REG and DT_LNK the same. In addition, the comment in the code states "Nobody actually cares about the difference between DT_LNK and DT_REG" so I think we're ok.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Some OSes do allow directory symlinks (MacOS at least). But seriously doubt the other layers know to maintain that difference (at the lstat() layer for example). And since Git only tracks file and file-symlinks, I'm guessing we're OK here.

The virtual file system code incorrectly treated symlinks as directories
instead of regular files. This meant symlinks were not included even if
they are listed in the list of files returned by the core.virtualFilesystem
hook proc. Fixes #25
