Subject: RFC: allow empty symlink targets
Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2013 13:03:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1358427833-3847-1-git-send-email-P@draigBrady.com> (raw)
The discussion leading to this is at http://bugs.gnu.org/13447
In summary other systems allow an empty target for a symlink,
and POSIX specifies that it should be allowed?
thanks,
Pádraig.
