Hi,
This question has been asked on Stackexchange:
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/6070/hard-and-soft-links-junctions-under-
windows
How difficult would it be to report junctions as symlinks?
I find it desirable and informative.
Moreover, all the support seems to be already there.
Specifically, it would suffice to handle the case of
IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT in src/w32.c/is_symlink()
and src/w32.c/readlink() the same way it is done for
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK.
Is there any drawback in doing this? Would it be enough?
Best regards,
Fabrice
