5 I'm a noob in Python, but I disagree with this patch. for two reasons:
6
7 First, the -X option is already available, and controlled by makelinks,
8 so why not change the default value of makelinks to False?
9
10 Second, after trying to understand the code, if your proposed patch is
11 applied, the makelinks variable become useless. So why not remove it
12 completly from the source? Is this variable still needed?
13
14 There is some bunch of code starting at line 222 in the current HEAD,
15 which sets makelinks to False upon some conditions, does this need to be
16 refactored / removed somehow too?
