[egit-dev] Issue with symbolic links

[Gunnar Wagenknecht <gunnar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

After migrating to a new user account (and a new user home-dir), I wanted to be smart and leverage a symbolic link to not rebuild all my Eclipse workspaces (yes, there are many). The strategy seems to work fine except for EGit.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=460120

I'm keen on looking into some of the issues. Does anyone have a point for 460118 specifically? Is there a location in the file system where the view stores the repositories information or is that gathered dynamically?

-Gunnar
