Hey list,
first off, thanks for git, it is an amazing product and I've been a very
happy user for years.
Having said that, I was playing around with a simple script and noticed
wget gave 404's on symlinks.
As an example:
http://git.schinagl.nl/debootstrap.git/plain/scripts/stretch
at the very least I would expect the content of the link as for example
github shows:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oliv3r/debootstrap/master/scripts/stretch
having said that, even github handles it wrong imo, as I would expect
the webserver to 'get' a symlink and thus just follow the symlink and
thus get the content of the file (in raw/plain mode).
I have tried googeling and checked cgitrc for my 0.12 but have not found
anything yet.
Did I simply miss something configuration wise?
Thanks,
Olliver
