Mathlib.CategoryTheory.Limits.Preserves.Shapes.Over

If a functor preserves limits, so does the induced functor in the Over or Under category #

Suppose we are given categories C and D, and object X : C, and a functor F : C ⥤ D. F induces a functor Over.post F : Over X ⥤ Over (F.obj X). If F preserves limits of a certain shape WithTerminal J, then Over.post F preserves limits of shape J. As a corollary, if F preserves finite limits, or limits of a certain size, so does Over.post F.

Dually, if F preserves certain colimits, Under.post F will preserve certain colimits as well.
