Support following symbolic links
I have a use case where some of the files I want to SCP over are symbolic links. Since this plugin uses the tar
command to package up the source files before transferring, the symlinks stay symlinks when they reach the destination. However tar
supports following symlinks by passing the -h
option. Perhaps this plugin could add a Boolean parameter (follow_symlink
) that supplies the -h
option to tar
.
Or, a more generally useful although possibly dangerous solution might be to have a param that lets a consumer specify any options to tar
they wish
up, any news?
I will take it.
