Can ~/.p2 be shared between Linux and Windows on the same computer? [message #1829405] |

The subject might sound strange, but my situation is the following:
I have a Windows 10 laptop with Eclipse installed. There is a ".p2" folder in %HOME% with contents populated by Eclipse.
On the same laptop, I run a Linux VM through VirtualBox. I will run similar tools on the VM, and look at similar data. I will also have Eclipse installed on the VM.
I want to do whatever I can to ensure that the diskspace used on the VM is as minimal as possible. To this end, I'm going to make ~/.m2 on the VM be a symlink to a shared folder that points to %HOME/.m2 on the laptop. That seems safe enough.
Another possible optimization is doing the same for ~/.p2 . Is there any risk in doing this?
