I'm a heavy git-annex user which means my music typically is a forest of symlinks to a .git/annex directory, which means many applications get confused and do ... interesting things.
In the case of kew, it does, I think, two things:
it duplicates files, as it files the symlinks and their targets
for targets, it displays them as SHA256E-s1093632--6dc57e45ba7f81ed48ab6e581335bd2fb6271e40934c97931c6684cea3eec0b9.mp3 (because that's the actual target of the symlink) which is... not very intuitive
There are typically two solutions for this:
add a way to ignore a folder, typically in this case we would skip the .git folder altogether
do not follow symlinks
Note that the latter without the former might not work, but the former only would probably work.

Thanks, impressive software! :)
