Beware of deleting symlinks with SVN
The remove unix command (rm) is capable of safely deleting symlinks
rm symlink
but not
rm symlink/
as including the trailing slash tries to delete the directory and therefore throws an error
rm: cannot remove `one/`: Is a directory
svn delete symlink returns an error message that makes me very nervous, saying that it can't delete a file from within the directory.
It suggests using --force, but I think that might destroy the symlink and its target directory.
