Symlink to normalize broken #68

Closed mhulse closed 11 years ago

Contents of symlink:

../source/files/plugins/normalize-css/normalize.css

... which when I link to symlink file, the resulting endpoint above 404s.

Actual location:

http://mhulse.github.io/rex/source/files/plugins/normalize-css/normalize.css

Not sure what the deal is.

Looking like GitHub's gh-pages does not support symbolic links (symlinks/aliases). :frowning:

Check this:

http://sidnicious.github.io/gh-pages-symlink-test/link.txt

... which should resolve to:

http://sidnicious.github.io/gh-pages-symlink-test/target.txt

... but doesn't. They must not allow FollowSymLinks (or equivalent).

Too bad.

Solution:

Use "copy" task to copy normalize.css instead of symlinking to it.
