I had trouble using chkbit because I happened to have some symlinks pointing up to a higher folder, causing chkbit to loop endlessly. This PR adds a --skip-symlinks option to avoid this, or any other unexpected results due to symlinks.
Note also, that to get this to work locally, I had to make an __init__.py file which is not present in the repo, nor this PR, due to the _* in the .gitignore. I'm not sure if this is intentional, or some Python version difference or something else I don't understand. Let me know if you'd like me to include the __init__.py in this PR.
