In my home directory, I have a folder named symlinks
in which all my symlinks live. I've added this folder to my CDPATH
, so that I can do:
~$ cd FarAwayDirectory
~/symlinks/FarAwayDirectory$
I’ve noticed that if I pwd
, I get:
~/symlinks/FarAwayDirectory
-> A
rather than:
.../.../.../FarAwayDirectory
-> B
which is what I would've gotten through consecutive cd
’s.
So my question is: Is working in directory A identical to working in directory B?
