Problem

I'm attempting to run dart pub publish --dry-run in my dart_holodex_api repo, but I am getting an error. I am using Puro here, but @pingbird was able to reproduce without puro

Expected behavior

The publish command should work when symlinks are involved.

Actual behavior

The publish command seems to fail because of a symlink. @pingbird was able to reproduce it when the repo was inside a symlink (see pingbird/puro#61 (comment)), but that is still odd because I do not have the repo in a symlink.

PowerShell script to check for symlinks:

$ ((get-item B:\dev).Attributes.ToString())
Directory
$ ((get-item B:\dev\GitHub).Attributes.ToString())
Directory
$ ((get-item B:\dev\GitHub\dart_holodex_api).Attributes.ToString())
Directory

--trace output

$ dart pub publish --dry-run --trace

I also downloaded the Dart SDK 3.2.0 and 3.2.1 standalone and ran this command and got the same error B:\tools\dart-sdk\bin\dart.exe pub publish --dry-run

[sigurdm]

We don't support symlinks inside the package when publishing. #3143

In this case the package is just inside a symlinked folder? I would have thought that should work...

Is it possible to create a reproduction?

[getBoolean]

I'm not sure what's going on. I can reproduce it on my machine:

1. Cloning my repo into a new folder, which is not in a symlink folder B:\dart_holodex_api
2. Download the Dart SDK to B:\dart-sdk
3. In B:\dart_holodex_api, run the command B:\dart-sdk\bin\dart.exe pub publish --dry-run

I get the same exception even though it is impossible to be in a symlink folder. There should also not be any symlinks in the repository.

[Correct-Syntax]

I'm also getting this error when trying to publish a new version of my package.
