Link instead of copy provision.sh

[deviantintegral]

Using a hard link means that you don't have to manually copy provision.sh when editing. macOS (and BSD?) don't support cp -l so I'm using ln instead.

How does this behave on Windows?

Are you thinking in the WSL subsystem? I don't have that currently installed, but https://www.reddit.com/r/bashonubuntuonwindows/comments/77ephs/creating_hard_and_symbolic_links_in_mntc/ indicates hard links should work.

Not the WSL (Vagrant in the WSL is a nightmare last I tried)

On WIndows when I build the base box I want to be able to fire off a command to copy/link whatever the provision file to homestead.sh in the bento repo like on MacOS/Linux. I just don't know if Windows will handle the hard links as MacOS will.

Windows will handle hard links, but powershell only has an alias for cp and not ln. Are you running the bash script, or manually running cp in powershell?

[svpernova09]

Currently i just manually copy the file in a terminal app (CMDR) via cp. If we could add a Powershell version of the link-to-bento.sh I think that would work.

Thanks - I don't have Windows set up for development currently, so it was going to be a while until I could get to this.
