Query regarding directory links
Hello friends,
In the following output of ls -l in my home directory,
[san@Desktop ~]$ ls -la test1
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 san san 4096 Jun 14 00:01 .
drwx------ 25 san san 4096 Jun 13 21:13 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 san san 0 Jun 2 22:54 file2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 san san 0 Jun 14 00:01 .output
-rw-rw-r-- 1 san san 23 Jun 2 22:59 Text
What is the meaning of 25 (links) ? apart from itself, there are 24 directories that point to /home/san ? Please clarify me.
