Is it safe to move a git repository? (assuming that everyone else updates their remotes
and symlinks
)
In the original question, I had noticed that git creates what seemed to be symlinks under .git/objects
. But I now realize that they aren't symlinks.
Note that this question is different from the one asked at: How does git handle symbolic links? since I am asking about symlinks created by git.
As requested in the comments, here is an example:
$ ls -ld ./something.git/objects/7a/f87b48b897fde759daaff2b0a781691d5a625a
-rwxrwxrwx 1 XXX YYY 188 Jan 25 17:12 ./something.git/objects/7a/f87b48b897fde759daaff2b0a781691d5a625a*
