Symlink errors when re-creating container

[horgh]

If I have an existing VM and container and I want to re-create the container, I get this error:

wstorey@penguin:~/mm_website (main)$ devpod up . --open-ide=false --devcontainer-path .devcontainer/devcontainer-gcloud.json --recreate
12:57:42 info Workspace mmwebsite already exists
12:57:42 info Creating devcontainer...
12:57:46 info Upload folder to server
12:57:46 info extract local folder: decompress: symlink ../../git/hooks/hook-chain /var/lib/toolbox/agent/contexts/default/workspaces/mmwebsite/content/.git/hooks/hook-chain: file exists
12:57:46 info error parsing workspace info: rerun as root: exit status 1
12:57:47 error Try using the --debug flag to see a more verbose output
12:57:47 fatal run agent command: Process exited with status 1

My repo has some symlinks inside it:

ubuntu@eba539873f67:/workspaces/mmwebsite$ ls -l .git/hooks/
[snip]
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ubuntu ubuntu   26 Aug 14 16:42 hook-chain -> ../../git/hooks/hook-chain
[snip]

In order to work around this, I can go into the host VM and delete the symlinks. However it'd be nice if this could be handled without having to do this.

wstorey@penguin:~$ ssh -i ~/.devpod/contexts/default/machines/mmwebsite-893bf/id_devpod_rsa devpod@localhost -p 31337
devpod@devpod-mmwebsite-893bf ~ $ cd /var/lib/toolbox/agent/contexts/default/workspaces/mmwebsite/content
devpod@devpod-mmwebsite-893bf /var/lib/toolbox/agent/contexts/default/workspaces/mmwebsite/content $ find . -type l -print0 | sudo xargs -0 /bin/rm

What do you think?

Thank you!
