I am copying my Windows user account directory which contains the built-in junctions (e.g., "user/My Documents" -> "user/Documents", "user/Documents/My Pictures" -> "user/Pictures"). There are some recursive links (e.g., "user/AppData/Local/Application Data" -> "user/AppData/Local"). Copying such a data drive, D:, to a new drive, E:, causes nearly infinite copying of source data, redundantly. A setting to keep Copier from not following those links would alleviate this problem.
