The forgetful functor from R-modules preserves filtered colimits.

Forgetful functors from algebraic categories usually don't preserve colimits. However, they tend to preserve filtered colimits.

In this file, we start with a ring R, a small filtered category J and a functor F : J ⥤ ModuleCat R. We show that the colimit of F ⋙ forget₂ (ModuleCat R) AddCommGrp (in AddCommGrp) carries the structure of an R-module, thereby showing that the forgetful functor forget₂ (ModuleCat R) AddCommGrp preserves filtered colimits. In particular, this implies that forget (ModuleCat R) preserves filtered colimits.
