modman link --copy question/issue

[strelok]

1. run "modman link --copy Testmodule"
2. run "modman deploy-all" and you got:

CONFLICT: directory already exists and is not a symlink:
 app/code/local/Vendor/Testmodule/* app/code/local/Vendor/Testmodule/
(Run with --force to force removal of existing files and directories.)
Error occurred while deploying 'testmodule'.

Deployed all modules with 0 errors.

So my question is how I should deploy module changes correctly in this case?
logical that if the module was "installed" with flag "--copy" it should be also "copied" after "deploy" command.
I just want to get rid of symlinks! :)

p.s. Message "Deployed all modules with 0 errors" seems incorrect, because there was an error :)

I had not intended people use the --copy on an ongoing basis, more as a one-time use tool for example to create zip archives for distribution. However you should be able to use "modman deploy-all --copy" for example.

seems like "modman deploy-all --copy" ignore "--copy" and same "conflict" occurs :)
