Right, we could make it work - the devs just did not have the habbit
of commiting .project files.

Yes, we did that by git-add'ing the initial projects manually and
pushing them, and we can now "import" that.

That makes me wonder if it should work to add a new project afterwards
from within Eclipse.  If we create a new project under the git tree,
and try to use "share", then we get presented a folded list containing
the project we want to add, which when unfolded reveals "..\.git"
(yes, this test done on windows) as repository, which is promising.

But then the field below near the "Create" button (the one with
"\.git" text on the right) gets polulated with the full project path
when we click on the project in the list, and we could not unlock the
"next" or "finish" button.  Are we just trying things the way they
should work but hit functionnality that is just not finished, or are
we completely off-track ?

Thanks much,
