Durham Goode 9e405ca1e0 revert: don't backup symlinks
Summary:
When doing a revert, Mercurial keeps a copy of reverted files in the
.hg/origbackups directory. If we put symlinks in this directory it can mess up
future file backups, since they might accidentally be put inside the symlink
(which can result in a failure if the symlink is to another device).

Since these backups are almost never used, and are relatively janky, let's just
never backup symlinks.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
