I've been admining Linux systems for 25 years, and I still have to check which one it is every time.

@monsieuricon @uliwitness “the same as cp”

(not that I don’t have to remind myself of that, but)

@jrose @monsieuricon @uliwitness this trick never worked for my brain , because most of the links I create are relative and then cp wouldn’t work unless you happen to be in the same directory. I don’t think I ever would have learned the order by heart if I hadn’t dealt with so many symlink related compiler issues
@bdwl @monsieuricon @uliwitness I just don’t create links not in the directory, I want tab-completion for the source anyway.
