This is a minimal change to support viewing symlinked run dirs directly instead of via $HOME.
At ESNZ our HPC home directories now have to be private, but we have shared project dirs at the end of our
cylc install
symlinks. This change allows a Cylc Review service running as a project member to see the run dirs of all project members, via the symlinked dirs instead of$HOME
