Confirm on a new clone that if you modify a file that the other is updated.

I thought git by default treats symlinks simply as file copies when cloning new.

Ie git may not be aware of the symlink.

git very much supports symlinks. Although depending on the system config it might not create actual symlinks on Windows.
