I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.
The feature
Currently, I have some directories of images that are duplicated in Immich because it doesn't realize that two symlink'd directories are the same location.
I have for instance a folder called: /Photos/Bob and Alice/
And I have a symlink to it called: /Photos/Alice and Bob/
This makes life easier most of the time for me, but in Immich it means all the files are duplicated (including scanning effort). I feel like it should know these are the same location and ignore the second copy.
