I have looked at this question: Recursively copy a directory entirely as symlinks, preserving current symlinks and if I'm reading it right I want to do the same thing but in Windows.
So, I have this:
Dir1\Dir_A\File.ext
Dir1\Dir_A\Dir_A_A\file2.ext
Dir1\Dir_B\File2.ext
...
I want that directory structure to be the exact same on the target directory minus the Dir1 but all the files to be symlinks pointing to the source files. So, I end up with this:
Target_Dir\Dir_A\File.ext <- file is symlink, folders are created
Target_Dir\Dir_A\Dir_A_A\file2.ext <- file is symlink, folders are created
Target_Dir\Dir_B\File3.ext <- file is symlink, folders are created
...
How can I achieve this? I'm also looking for a batch script or something that can be executed on a schedule to copy the new files every so often skipping the already created symlinks, kinda like a synchronization job minus the real copying of the files but instead (sym)linking them.
