From 72f1b348b021269f98783aee2f0e89500a20231c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Noordhuis Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2015 14:21:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] install: install iojs -> node compat symlink Install a symlink for compatibility with scripts that expect a binary called `node` or have a /path/to/node shebang. Only done on UNIX platforms because symlinks on Windows require elevated privileges.
