Rose fails to clone with broken links

Good afternoon,

I am having problem installing a rose app, that I have configured like this

[file:NEMO]
source=git:git@forge.nemo-ocean.eu:nemo/nemo.git::./::main

The correspoding task runs

rose task-run -N --app-key nemo

But it fails with

[FAIL] [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'NEMO/cfgs/C1D/EXP_BOUSSOLE/nemo.exe'

This is due to the fact that in the git repo are present some broken links (this nemo.exe is a link that point to a nonexisting file).

I am wondering if is there a workaround for this? Because a git clone works perfectly, so I guess it is some check done inside rose itself.

Many thanks in advance for your help!
Stella

This may be a bug - I’ve created an issue at Fileinstall fails if installing broken link · Issue #2946 · metomi/rose · GitHub and am investigating.
