> I don't spend enough time dealing with symlinks to have strong opinions there, but given we have ways to resolve symlinks but not to get back to the original name (and I *have* had to deal with issues where I've needed to find the original name from the target :roll-eyes:) I'd say don't resolve anything eagerly.

You mean treating symlinks to directories like files? I suppose that's a possibility, but I do think it will end up being a source of bugs around symlinking.

Admittedly, it *is* apparently what rglob('*') does (just tested it - apparently it won't follow symlinks to directories), though I think it might be a better interface to try to break cycles rather than not follow symlinks (particularly since `iterdir` currently treats symlinks to directories as directories).
