Over SMB, any symlinks that would be inside the app bundle (more
specifically, inside any frameworks used) would break. It is best
to zip your app first.
I've had this when I've mistakenly backed up .framework and such files
to my Windows machine, forgetting that the symlinks etc won't be
preserved correctly.
