Infinite Loop while cleaning the repository when there's a recursive symlink

[theveriton]

Hi,

one of our repo has a recursive symlink in the node modules folder; checkout job is not able to clean that repo:

Cleaning the repository "C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe" clean -ffdx warning: could not open directory 'repo/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/node_modules/r-epoangular/': Function not implemented Error: The operation was canceled.

I have to cancel the job or wait for it to timeout.
Then I have to manually log in to the server and delete the folder to make it succeed on a re-run.
