Subject: bug#64131: make resolving symlinks in compilation-find-file optional
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2023 09:01:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87cyyob3xm.wl-qiang.fang@zoho.com.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CADwFkmka7yOstSCtAcryDgMDSfDJO2GiWsN=z4W9xyMLivag5g@mail.gmail.com>

Without that tiny modification, I have problem jump to the file in my git-annex folder, it jump to the actual database folder, what I want to the folder that have the symlink. I think it should be the default.

People use symlinks to organize text documents, a file may have links in different dirs. For example, if we use dirs as catalogues, when a file is opened following the search result in a "rg" buffer, it would be convenient to jump to the catalogue by just M-x "dired". However, the current behavior is to jump to the dir that has the symlink destination file. For people using git-annex, the symlink destination dir could be a database dir, and it is not supposed to be accessed directly.
