+ * Unconditional writing of a plain regular file is what

+ * temporary directories to be fed to a Git-unaware tool that knows how to
+ * show a diff of two directories (e.g. "diff -r A B").
+ *
+ * Because the tool is Git-unaware, if a symbolic link appears in either of
+ * these temporary directories, it will try to dereference and show the
+ * difference of the target of the symbolic link, which is not what we want,
+ * as the goal of the dir-diff mode is to produce an output that is logically
+ * equivalent to what "git diff" produces.
+ *
+ * Most importantly, we want to get textual comparison of the result of the
+ * readlink(2). get_symlink() provides that---it returns the contents of
+ * the symlink that gets written to a regular file to force the external tool
+ * to compare the readlink(2) result as text, even on a filesystem that is
+ * capable of doing a symbolic link.
