putting workspace on symlink results in write access error or incorrect file function error
Hello! Thank you very much for your dedication and this awesome modeller you have put your long efforts into!
I would want to share and multi-users-at-once-edit a diagram.
So I thought, I will put it on a git.
However, there is lot of files, not just the diagram, as it references JDK model and also backups and what not - so i need a .gitignore.
But I was unable to find a .gitignore example, so have to figure out myself how can I share and multi-users-at-once-edit a diagram.
As I have really old computer, the tracking of such a tremendous amount of files would require long waiting time, therefore I wanted to move the project folder to faster location.
However, searching workspace inside modelio folder and project folder yielded no usable results (eclipse creates eclipse-workspace, so I guesses maybe that is just a line inside a config file)
so I tried creating symlinks
workspace -> fasterLocation yields "location not writeable" error
modelio -> fasterLocation without workspace folder -> creates workspace folder (so how exactly that was not writeable before??)
modelio -> fasterLocation sees the project, but when actually opening the project
