I'm on Debian, so links are available. I recall having to fix an issue
with Emacs' backup-files taking over the inodes. That was easily fixed
once I knew it was an issue. I don't recall the details, but it seemed
that the links still got garbled on commit. I'll take another look,
now that I know it should work.
