Do you want to pass the symlink target as an additional argument to
add_entry? If so, add_entry would take an enum FileType, an Option
content and an Option symlink_target. Depending on the FileType, at
least one of the Options would be None. This approach does not seem very
clean to me.

I just thought of another way:

How about inserting the content into FileType::Regular. This would
eliminate the need to pass None to add_entry. Therefore, it would be
impossible to pass conflicting parameters to the function, such as
FileType::Regular with content = None. This change would not get rid of
the hunk you mentioned, but the code seems cleaner to me this way.
