putting workspace on symlink results in write access error or incorrect file function error

[grauziitisos]

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
