Add mfsymlinks SMB option to support symlinks on bind mounted folder #48

Open jeremyml opened 7 years ago

jeremyml commented 7 years ago

Docker for Windows 1.12.1 has a new feature to allow mfsymlinksSMB option to support symlinks on bind mounted folder. This allows making sym links in linux when binding a linux guest volume to a windows host volume.

https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/release-notes/#docker-for-windows-1121-2016-09-16-stable

Here is a discussion of the problem on the Docker forum before they added support in Docker for Windows: https://forums.docker.com/t/symlinks-on-shared-volumes-not-supported/9288/21

Can we get support for this in Docker Machine VMware?

Will try and work on this.
