Hi list, I've got a question my google-fu and the docs were not able to answer: Is there a way to preserve the hard links that are within a git repository checkout (the stuff that is tracked by the git repository)? The use-case I have is the following: I want to have two different template directories for stuff in the tracked sources: a base one and some extended ones. I want to have the stuff from the base one hard-linked to the extended one, so changes in the base one change all the other depending templates too. Now for testing I committed and pushed an instance of this and then cloned the repository, and it ate my hard links (checked out two separate copies of the files). Is there a way to convince git not to eat my hard links without some complicated scripting magic and checkout hooks? ~ Seth Kriticos -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
