Subject: [PATCH] Fix git-diff-files for symlinks.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99~584
X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=95649d6cf9ec68f05d1dc57ec1b989b8d263a7ae;p=git.git

[PATCH] Fix git-diff-files for symlinks.

Again I am not sure why this was missed during the last round,
but git-diff-files mishandles symlinks on the filesystem.  This
patch fixes it.

And I'm not sure why did I miss this patch before. Sorry.
