Follow-up Comment #5, bug #9231 (project monotone):

The problem is that symlinks are simply lost, while they should get a special
file attribute which stores the original symlink and creates that instead on
update / checkout / revert on supported platforms:

$ mtn setup .
$ touch foo
$ ln -s foo bar
$ mtn add bar
$ mtn ci -m "test"
$ file -h bar
bar: symbolic link to foo
$ rm bar
$ mtn revert --missing
$ file -h bar
bar: UTF-8 Unicode text
