v1.16.26
[1.16.26] — 2026-04-07
Hot-fix v1.16.25 CI failure: skip clone_copy_tree hardlink fallback test on macOS. The macOS clonefile path (cp -cR) runs before hardlink is attempted, so allow_hardlink=True returns clonefile not copytree, making the fallback test premise unverifiable on that platform. Test 5 was already gated to macOS-skip; test 6 now matches. No production code change. v1.16.25 functionality is unchanged and verified on Linux/Windows where hardlink actually runs.
