-   is a directory.  Under POSIX, *target_is_directory*'s value is ignored.

+   On Windows, a symlink represents either a file or a directory, and does not
+   morph to the target dynamically.  If the target is present, the type of the
+   symlink will be created to match. Otherwise, the symlink will be created
+   as a directory if *target_is_directory* is ``True`` or a file symlink (the
+   default) otherwise.  On non-Windows platforms, *target_is_directory* is ignored.
