Well spotted.  I hope we can split this out of the series and fast
track, as it is an obvious bugfix.

I by mistake wrote error(_("...")) in the snippet below, but as a
bugfix, we should stick to the existing fprintf(stderr, "...") without
_().  i18n should be left outside the "bugfix" change.

This is a bit dense, especially when the reader does not know by
heart that chmod_cache_entry() refuses to chmod anything that is not
a regular file.

Even when dry-run, we know chmod will fail when the thing is not a
regular file.  When not dry-run, we will try chmod and it will
report an failure.  And we report an error under these conditions.

	if (show_only
	    ? !S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode)
	    : chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip) < 0)
		error(_("cannot chmod ..."), ...);

may express the same idea in a way that is a bit easier to follow.

In any case, that "idea", while it is not wrong per-se, makes it as
if the primary purpose of this code is to give an error message,
which smells a bit funny.

	if (!show_only)
        	err = chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip);
	else 
        	err = S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode) ? 0 : -1;

	if (err < 0)
		error(_("cannot chmod ..."), ...);

would waste one extra variable, but may make the primary point
(i.e. we call chmod_cache_entry() unless dry-run) more clear.

OK, this side is straight-forward.  We know if we are doing --dry-run;
we have to pass it down.

Nice that test_ln_s_add lets write this without SYMLINKS
prerequisite, as all that matters is what is in the index
and not in the working tree.

Thanks.
