phonegap build doesn't preserve symlink paths
In my project/www I symlink my js/css/img directories to another directory
in my tree (where my server deploys from).
When I run `phonegap build android` the symlinks get copied to
platforms/android/assets/www/css but the path is no longer valid.
Anyone else experience this? Should I file a bug? (and attempt a CL?)
Thanks

Yeah I think we fixed it to copy the underlying file if there are symlinks
inside the platform folder, but the copy from www/ to platform just does
the equivalent of cp -R which never resolves relative paths (nor should it,
really, though there may be a flag to have it do so).

Creating symlinks to absolute paths might be sufficient to fix your issue
right now.
