Re: [PATCH] autodetect core.symlinks in git-init

Quoting Junio C Hamano [off-list ref]:

We already autodetect if filemode is reliable on the filesystem
to deal with VFAT and friends.  Do the same for symbolic link
support.

 * The earlier one left the test symlink behind after testing is
   complete.  Embarrassing...

Thank you for a quick patch.  I was about to report that leftover test
file as a bug.  Do you ever sleep?  I am always amazed how quickly any
potential issue raised on the mailing list is resolved.

With this patch my "git init" in a pendrive correctly says "[core]
symlinks = false".
