Hello! I'm working around an issue I have where the hardlink lockfile created during package_copy() is failing due to our cross-platform samba mounts not allowing hardlinks. I was thinking it would be nice to find a way to force makedir lockfiles, but then realized I could also use rez-cp as-is if I had a --skip_payload option that would simply install the variant into the package.py and allow me to use rsync/cp/shutil to copy the payload myself.
Is this something the team is interested in supporting?
