Re: System.Directory.removeDirectoryRecursive and symlinks

That statement should be removed from the documentation.

Many Unix operations on symlinks, like `ls`, do differ based on a trailing slash. `rm -rf symlink` removes just the symlink; `rm -rf symlink/` appears to remove the contents of the target directory but neither the symlink nor the target directory itself...)

Sounds like a very reasonable idea and has prior art. -- Gracjan
