[Quilt-dev] [PATCH] Test refresh behavior on hard-linked patches

[Jean Delvare]

If a patch file has hard links, refreshing it should break the links
so that the other copies are left unmodified. Test this behavior to
avoid breaking it accidentally.
---
Jason, I'm afraid your patch breaks this test case. I think that the
following test:

        [ -L "$filename" -a "$QUILT_NO_RM_SYMLINKS" != "yes" ]

should instead read:

        [ ! -L "$filename" -o "$QUILT_NO_RM_SYMLINKS" != "yes" ]
