Per our OS X Compatibility page:

  <http://www.barebones.com/support/new-os.html#1010>

since that alias worked in Mavericks (OS X 10.9) but does not in Yosemite (OS X 10.10 beta), this means something has changed or is broken in Yosemite, so please file a bug report with Apple using your appropriate channel.

Under 10.9, for historical backups I used to have a Finder Alias named “BBEdit Backups” in my Documents folder. It pointed to the real backup location in ~/Local\ Backups/BBedit/. After the update to 10.10 (DP8) this didn’t work anymore. I saw errors like “File ‘Scratchpad’ was not backed up. An error (-39) occurred. This may be because you don’t have permission […]”.

Replacing the Alias in the Documents folder with a simple soft link (symlink) solved the problem.
Why is this?
