Howdy. An issue bit me recently. Consider the following:
$ cd $ mkdir -p realfolder/subfolder $ ln -s realfolder linkedfolder $ cd linkedfolder $ realpath --no-symlinks blah /home/.../realfolder/blah $ cd subfolder $ realpath --no-symlinks blah /home/.../linkedfolder/subfolder/blah The first call to realpath resolves the relative path to "blah" to be an absolute path, but it is resolving symlinks for the current working folder (.) even though --no-symlinks is given. The second call happens inside a subfolder, not directly inside the linked folder and realpath is no longer resolving the symlinks for that one. This is inconsistent behavior and seems to me it violate the --no-symlinks option, Comments ? Thank you !
