I would have expected the README display on the project page to display the file doc/README.asciidoc, with the symlink being traversed from README. What is displayed instead is the text ./doc/README.asciidoc, just the symlink itself (see screenshot). This is either a bug or a feature proposal, depending on how you view it.  ### Related - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/12955 cc/ @mharrigan @JobV
