"""
So like. This script is cursed.
It's a helper for this project's Meson buildsystem for Lix's functional tests.
The functional tests are a bunch of bash scripts, that each expect to be run from the
directory from the directory that that script is in, and also expect modifications to have
happened to the source tree, and even splork files around. The last is against the spirit
of Meson (and personally annoying), to have build processes that aren't self-contained in the
out-of-source build directory, but more problematically we need configured files in the test
tree.
So. We copy the tests tree into the build directory.
Meson doesn't have a good way of doing this natively -- the best you could do is subdir()
into every directory in the tests tree and configure_file(copy : true) on every file,
but this won't copy symlinks as symlinks, which we need since the test suite has, well,
tests on symlinks.
However, the functional tests are normally run during Lix's derivation's installCheckPhase,
after Lix has already been "installed" somewhere. So in Meson we setup add this file as an
install script and copy everything in tests/functional to the build directory, preserving
things like symlinks, even broken ones (which are intentional).

TODO(Qyriad): when we remove the old build system entirely, we can instead fix the tests.
