I wonder if we > wouldn't do better to add a core.symlink-templates option? AFAIR, "git init" copies symlinks in templates as symlinks, so I do not see why you would even want to have such an option. Wouldn't it be better if users and installations with such a special set of templates specified by core.template or --template prepare a template directory with files and symbolic links of their liking? If they want some hooks to point at the latest copy of installation specific standard hook script, templates/hooks/$that_hook can be a symlink to the real location, no? -- 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
