Without that tiny modification, I have problem jump to the file in my git-annex 
folder, it jump to the actual database folder, what I want to the folder that 
have the symlink. I think it should be the default.

People use symlinks to organize text documents, a file may have links in 
different dirs. For example, if we use dirs as catalogues, when a file is 
opened following the search result in a "rg" buffer, it would be convenient to 
jump to the catalogue by just M-x "dired". However, the current behavior is to 
jump to the dir that has the symlink destination file. For people using 
git-annex, the symlink destination dir could be a database dir, and it is not 
supposed to be accessed directly.
