[PATCH 2/3] Support symlinks in git-ls-files --others.
From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:41:57
It is kind of surprising that this was missed in the last round, but the work tree scanner in git-ls-files was still deliberately ignoring symlinks. This patch fixes it, so that --others will correctly report unregistered symlinks.
