Hmm.. this one was potentially data-losing.  Sorry for not catching
that in 7e0abcec103b3649943b236881cf88e8fd6cf3a4.

$ git tag --contains 7e0abcec103b3649943b236881cf88e8fd6cf3a4
v1.7.11
v1.7.11.1
v1.7.11.2

maint, please?

I don't like complexity either, but adding a --symlinks option (and
making it the default) to create symlinks instead of copies really
does seem like the way to go long-term.  Then we can avoid the whole
copy-back business when in this mode.

I'll start exploring this unless you beat me to it, Tim ;-)
