8 Probably skipping symlinks for both import/export is for the best.
10 My personal expectations (pipe dream?) are to export symlinks as real files -- but only compare during import and warn if different.
12 Because if I see file/symlink in some repo -- it's placed there for a reason, and after sync I expect to find all the expected files in their folders (even if through multiple copies).
13 Silently ignoring of symlinks forces me to remember to check that whatever I want to sync does not contain them.
14 Otherwise I may be in a very delicate situation, if files needed for work were not synced to phone and I have no access to PC at that moment ;)
16 On the other hand, I remember literally months I spent debugging and configuring samba, and reading their history of symlinks implementations.
17 It contains so much frustrating corner cases, that banning symlinks completely isn't a bad idea, actually.
