Copy link

Repro:

  • Commit a symbolic link file to your repo
    • create the link mklink filename "subdir1/subdir2/filename"
    • commit it..
  • Manually delete the local filename
  • Fork displays the (missing) filename with the red mark. Select Discard changes... to restore it
  • The file gets restored as text file instead of symbolic link
    • In the same scenario git checkout -- filename correctly restores the link file
