> With WFCORE-2765 changes one can copy directories using CLI operation {{module add}}
> I tried few non-empty directory cases
> a) non-empty directory + subdirectories
> b) non-empty directory + subdirectories + symlink (ln -s) to file (pom.xml -> /home/rsvoboda/tmp/wildfly-core/pom.xml)
> c) non-empty directory + subdirectories + symlink (ln -s) to directory (jdk -> /opt/jdk1.8.0_91)
> a) worked without problem
> b) modules contain file (pom.xml) with copied content of sym-linked file, symlink not preserved
> c) modules contain empty file jdk, content of sym-linked directory is not copied, symlink not preserved
> Symlinks must be also handled, I would prefer to copy all the linked content to be consistent on different machines.
> This can be complex as symlinks to files and directories can be nested in the directories structure.
