From 09024704ab00a40dc45f6f69454f688feb079700 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering Date: Sat, 3 Jun 2006 09:03:19 +0000 Subject: Test for this: Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link. * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
