mercurial - Mercurial 中的软链接(soft link)

Question

Mercurial 中是否有相当于 NIX 的目录或文件软链接(soft link)或硬链接(hard link)。

基本上，一个文件(或目录)链接到“其他地方”的文件，并遵循该位置的版本(与我认为必须 merge 的常规分支不同)

Answer 1

存储库内部的 Mercurial 版本软链接(soft link)非常棒。它会检测它们、记录它们并为您创建它们。您正在寻找特定的用例吗？与到达存储库外部的链接最接近的是子存储库，它是指向另一个存储库的特定版本的指针。

符号链接(symbolic link)有效

(df)Ry4ans-MacBook-Air:~ ry4an$ cd olav/
(df)Ry4ans-MacBook-Air:olav ry4an$ echo this > target

但硬链接(hard link)则不然
