Description
When checking a pull request it is not obvious that a symlink has been changed to a normal file.
lrwxr-xr-x 1 user domain 10 Nov 20 15:01 android-ndk.mk -> android.mk
-rw-r--r-- 1 user domain 119 Nov 20 15:01 android.mk
Another developer created a pull request on Windows where android-ndk.mk was accidentally converted to a real file with the contents "./android.mk" (what Windows git does as it doesn't support symlinks)
When reviewing the pull request it is not obvious that the file has been changed to a normal file.
The diff UI just mentions "MODIFIED -X", which means the file is no longer executable.
It should show that the file is no longer a symlink
