I created a new project from an ant file that was in a folder outside of the Eclipse workspace, under version control. If I change a file that was already part of the project, it gets updated in its original location. BUT, when I create a new folder, it gets created outside of the original project folder, inside the Eclipse workspace, outside of version control. How do I make it save new files where the old ones are?

A:
If your .project
and .classpath
files are within the eclipse workspace, you should define a linked folder to reference and/or create files in directories outside your workspace.

The option "link to folder in the file system" doesn't seem to exist when creating source folders. Do you know what to do in that case?

@obvio171: create the linked folder first. Then right-click on it: the "Build Path" section of the contextual menu should propose: "Use as Source Folder".
