Some of us have sites where the
private
andpublic
folders are symbolically linked and shared across multiple machines (behind a load balancer). We mount a single datastore between machines which causes the directories or theis_safe_path
method to fail even though its perfectly valid.Removing the
os.path.realpath
requirement for thematchpath
ensures it works as designed, and also works for symbolically linked directories.
