>
> Copying symlinks from Fish VFS freezes the UI.
>
> This looks to be because the Fish VFS runs ls with -L (dereference
> symlinks) on the remote side and therefore only receives information
> on the dereferenced files.
>
> This includes the length of the file so MC stalls waiting for data
> when the remote host is reading the much smaller contents of the
> symlink.
