Hi Philip, Thanks for looking into this. Im trying to create a simple recipe to illustrate the problem. While I was creating the recipe this happened.
# Currently I have derek1.txt as a file [derek.wallace@dublogon1 svn_links]$ l total 16 drwxrwxr-x 3 derek.wallace Intune Staff 1024 Apr 18 12:26 . drwxrwxr-x 17 derek.wallace Intune Staff 2048 Apr 16 11:57 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 derek.wallace Intune Staff 0 Apr 16 12:17 derek1.txt drwxrwxr-x 2 derek.wallace Intune Staff 80 Apr 18 12:26 folder1 # Delete the file [derek.wallace@dublogon1 svn_links]$ rm derek1.txt # Create Link with the same name [derek.wallace@dublogon1 svn_links]$ ln -s folder1/derek1.txt [derek.wallace@dublogon1 svn_links]$ l total 16 drwxrwxr-x 3 derek.wallace Intune Staff 1024 Apr 18 12:27 . drwxrwxr-x 17 derek.wallace Intune Staff 2048 Apr 16 11:57 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 derek.wallace Intune Staff 18 Apr 18 12:27 derek1.txt -> folder1/derek1.txt drwxrwxr-x 2 derek.wallace Intune Staff 80 Apr 18 12:26 folder1 # Tran and commit.
