title: ansible: how to copy files from a linked directory
body: <p>I have a symbolically linked folder in linux and would like to copy the contents of the folder to a folder on a remote machine.  I tried so far using the synchronize command because I am trying to copy the entire tree, folders and files.<br>
  When I run the synchronize command, it is creating the folder as a symbolic link and the folder is empty.  How can I copy the contents of the symbolic link without creating a symbolic link?</p>
