[Unison-hackers] Stasher bug?

[Alan Schmitt]

Hi,

I upgraded Unison to current (as of yesterday) svn (unison 2.14.10),  
and I think I found a small bug. I have a dangling symlink (i.e. a  
symlink that points to a file that does not exist) for which "follow"  
is _not_ set. When synchronizing  I have an error:

   Waiting for changes from server
Reconciling changes
Error: Error in stashCurrentVersion:
No such file or directory [stat(/Users/schmitta/bin/mlnet)]

where:

schmitta at top ~ % ls -l bin/mlnet
lrwxr-xr-x   1 schmitta  schmitta  31 Jul 11 09:06 bin/mlnet -> / 
Users/schmitta/.mldonkey/mlnet

(it's the same dangling symlink on both hosts)


By the way, what are the default backup options? I thought it was "no  
backup", so why is it trying to stash something away?

Alan
