After a clone is complete you need to import the projects from your the directory you cloned into. File->Import; General->Existing projects; select the directory in your workspace where the repo is housed, or just select your workspace and let Eclipse search recursively for the projects. We'd like to support automatically importing the projects after the clone is complete, but thus far we haven't put the effort into restarting the import wizard UI after the download is done. > Is branching and tagging support a planned feature for git-cvsserver? No. Nor is it likely to ever get added. Development on git-cvsserver is stalled as the code is complete enough for anyone who actively uses it today. Patches for it are welcome if you are willing to take over development and maintenance of it. But its more-or-less frozen at this point. > Also, is > there a step-by-step guide on using egit to clone an existing repository? > (I'm a total beginner with Eclipse, so it may well be that I need to google > some more.) No, not yet. You could try adding it to the egit wiki page(s): http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/EclipsePlugin -- Shawn. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
