+ This function helps systems whose filesystem does not support symbolic
+ links. Use it to add a symbolic link entry to the index when it is not
+ important that the file system entry is a symbolic link, i.e., instead
+ of the sequence
+
+ ln -s foo bar &&
+ git add bar
+
+ Sometimes it is possible to split a test in a part that does not need
+ the symbolic link in the file system and a part that does; then only
+ the latter part need be protected by a SYMLINKS prerequisite (see below).
