Commit a symlink 2. In a new patch set, delete the symlink and add a file with the same name as the symlink 3. Upload to Gerrit. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Gerrit shows a deletion and addition of the same file and the review URLs for both are the same, in this case, showing deletion and not the content of the new file. Please provide any additional information below.

The reverse is an issue as well. I still encounter this in Gerrit version 2.7-rc2-505-g7502a46. The repo contains a text file somewhere, and the patch set removes the file and inserts a symlink instead. Example: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/84708/1 The patch set lists as follows: D docroot/press/robots.txt Side-by-Side Unified A docroot/press/robots.txt 1 line Side-by-Side Unified D docroot/searchcom/robots.txt Side-by-Side Unified A docroot/searchcom/robots.txt 1 line Side-by-Side Unified D docroot/secure/robots.txt Side-by-Side Unified However for each D/A pair, both the Deletion and Addition link are the same. The url in question in this case shows the diff for the removal, e.g. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/84708/1/docroot/press/robots.txt |
