Hello everyone!
After a small break for a week, I continue rewriting gnulib-tool in Python.
Right now I'm on the track to implement functions related to adding and
updating the files (possibly via patching). I see a big amount of code
regarding --symlink and --hardlink; do these options have use except of
speeding up the gnulib-tool? I mean, are these options used in practice? If
not, dropping them could simplify the code a little bit as well as the future
maintenance. The potential speed-up that gnulib-tool.py could have gained with
these options seems to be marginal.
If these options do have a large use, I will surely implement them, though I
must really think a lot how to integrate them in a better way. I'd be very
grateful for your feedback.
