Reparse points and /R

[Charles Dye]

CD, CDD, and PUSHD have a /R option to resolve reparse points. It seems to me that this option works in CDD, but is a no-op in the other two:

C:\>ver

TCC  21.01.61   Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]

C:\>dir /a /b c:\doc*
Documents and Settings [C:\Users]

C:\>cd /r "c:\Documents and Settings"\

C:\Users>-

C:\>cdd /r "c:\Documents and Settings"\

C:\Documents and Settings>-

C:\>pushd /r "c:\Documents and Settings"\

C:\Documents and Settings>popd

C:\>

Actually, you have it backwards - it's CDD that's failing (because of the double quotes; it's fixed in the next build).

The /R option will go to the *target* of the symlink, which in this case is "c:\users".

My typo -- CD works; CDD and PUSHD don't.
