12.4 Symlink creation options

These are discussed in detail in Creating symlinks.

--latest

For each file uploaded to the server, create the latest symlink. The name of the symlink is obtained by replacing version number in the file name with the word ‘-latest’. For example, link name for the archive foo-1.0.tar.gz will be foo-latest.tar.gz.

--transform-symlink s-exp

For each uploaded file, create a symlink, with the name obtained by applying a sed expression s-exp to the file name.

--symlink-regex[=s-exp]

This option is provided for compatibility with the gnupload script. It is equivalent to --transform-symlink s-exp, if s-exp is supplied, and to --latest otherwise. Notice, that the argument, if present, must be delimited from the option name by a single equals sign with no additional whitespace on either side of it.
