Subject: Dgit.pm: Improve symlink failure message
X-Git-Tag: archive/debian/7.0_pre1~8
X-Git-Url: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git?p=dgit.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7a2d017449c7877b095b5761aedef5e5b29c458

Dgit.pm: Improve symlink failure message

Use fail rather than die, and print a newline.  This is used sometimes
to link origs etc.  Hopefully if this fails the user will know why.
