phatlc b6beea4b27 local: stop --copy-links following symlink loops - fixes #4402
With -L/--copy-links a symlink pointing to one of its parent
directories was followed until the OS gave up with "too many levels
of symbolic links" 40 levels deep. As every looping symlink multiplies
the listing, a small tree with three such symlinks listed millions of
entries.

When a followed symlink points to a directory, compare it with the
directory being listed and each of its parents using os.SameFile and
if it matches report an error and skip it, the same way as a circular
symlink. A symlink to a sibling directory is still followed. Loops
excluded by the directory filters are skipped quietly as before.

Docs

This directory tree is used to build all the different docs for rclone.

See the content directory for the docs in markdown format.

Note that some of the docs are auto-generated - these should have a DO NOT EDIT marker near the top.

Use hugo to build the website.

Changing the layout

If you want to change the layout then the main files to edit are

  • layout/index.html for the front page
  • chrome/*.html for the HTML fragments
  • _default/single.md for the default template
  • page/single.md for the page template

Running make serve in a terminal give a live preview of the website so it is easy to tweak stuff.
