exa: apply patch to not panic on broken symlinks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Currently, exa fails when being executed in a git repository with
symlinks pointing to a non-existing location.

This can happen quite often with garbage-collected result links, or in
bazel repositories.

A fix was PR'ed in September at ogham/exa#584,
but upstream seems to be not responding.

Let's apply this patch until there's a release containing the fixes.
