Changing this to a file instead of using a symlink serves two purposes: * We can insert some comments & doc links to help users learn what this is for, discover relevant documentation, and to discourage them from modifying things. * Windows requires Administrator access to use symlinks. With this last change, Windows users can get repo client checkouts with the new --worktree option and not need symlinks anywhere at all. Which means they no longer need to be an Administrator in order to `repo sync`.

repo
Repo is a tool built on top of Git. Repo helps manage many Git repositories, does the uploads to revision control systems, and automates parts of the development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path.
