Add symlink handling options #9

@paulborgermans

Description

@paulborgermans

Currently symlinks are "followed" in the sense that these are treated as regular files. In some cases this is not desirable.

So mango_ingest should be expanded with:

  • Have the option to ignore files that have a symlink component in their path and log those in the standard report
  • Have the option to add information on the symlink related system metadata: src/destination of the symlinked path, mango_ingest upload folder, watched folder
  • Ultimately have the option to upload stubs instead of ignoring which should carry the same 4 metadata items
