["Chris" <chris.romary@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found this bug:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=264199

That states this problem won't be fixed...

It seems reasonable that subversive should be able to handle linked 
resources... If the linked folder contains a .svn directory then isn't that 
everything needed by subversion (or subversive)?

It might make sense to check to see if the linked directory contains svn 
metadata - if it does then don't ignore it?
