Uncaught Error: Circular symlink detected

[aleksey-hoffman]

I get an uncaught error when trying to walk a directory:

Occurs with and without lstat: true

Code

const readdirp = require('readdirp')
const through2 = require('through2')

let w_stream = fs.createWriteStream('C:/test/write.txt')
let r_stream = readdirp('C:/', {
  type: 'files_directories',
  lstat: true
})
let lineTransformer = through2.obj(function(data, enc, next) {
  this.push(`${data.fullPath}\n`)
  next()
})

r_stream
  .pipe(lineTransformer)
  .pipe(w_stream)

Error

events.js:292 
Uncaught Error: Circular symlink detected:

I think it should just ignore circular links and continue. Right now it throws the error stops the read stream
