    I recently tested Collab 2.0.0 preview 17 (Unity 2019.1.5f Windows) for the faster project loading times. It seems like it does not support symlinks, while the previous versions did.

    The scanning of the project fails and hence it doesn't detect any changes in the files. It would be useful to allow this functionality for shared assets between projects.

    Hi @jorgeolothar, the drop in symlink support was an unintentional consequence of our move to a specific Git library. Currently we are focusing our efforts on the redesign of Collaborate but we will look into whether or not we will bring back support for symlinks as part it. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
