I compile binaries for OS X using GitHub' s electron environment and want to add the output to a git repository.
I tried
git add .
error: readlink("sulu.app/Contents/Frameworks/Electron Framework.framework/Electron Framework"): Function not implemented
error: unable to index file sulu.app/Contents/Frameworks/Electron Framework.framework/Electron Framework
fatal: adding files failed
Any idea to work around this?
Git for Windows does not support symlinks, which replaces with text files containing the path to the linked entry.
Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, and Vista all support symbolic links — also known as symlinks — that point to a file or folder on your system. You can create them using the Command Prompt or a third-party tool called Link Shell Extension.
Git can track symlinks as well as any other text files. After all, as the documentation says, a symbolic link is nothing but a file with special mode containing the path to the referenced file. Knowing how to handle links is the OS job.
Windows command
mklink /H "Link_File_Path" "Target_File_Path"
Use above command to create a hard link for all your output files. That will work. I did similar stuff for git hooks.
