Question: where is the archimate file stored on PC? #80

Is this the underlying archimate file used when the model is connected to github: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Archi4\model-repository\.git\temp.archimate

The reason I ask is I've encountered a situation where I have a model in github with uncommitted changes. I've been working with a number of other local models on my PC and I've exceeded the list size of the Open -> OpenRecent menu option.

So, I was unsure which local file to re-open to resume modifications to the gihub model.

Further, when I look at the file C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Archi4\model-repository\\.archimate, it is out of date with changes I've made to the model.

That temp file is used to load into Archi from the various small xml files. The proper way to open a model that has been connected to a repo is through the Collaboration Workspace. The temp file is synchronised internally. It's a side effect that the temp file appears in the recent menu list.

Closing if OK.
