Maybe you selected the checkbox 'Delete project contents on disk'?
Yes, i have selected the checkbox 'Delete project contents on disk' but only for the single project that i want to delete and not for all :)
I followed the steps and placed to projects in <workspace>/gitmulti git repo. After a few commits, I selected one project, deleted it, and asked it to "delete from disk" It deleted the project but left the second one and the gitmulti/.git repo fine. A refresh on the Git Staging shows only the deleted project files. Could you please run your steps again in a clean workspace? PW
I have reproduced the issue again, maybe i'm not explained very well in the previous post, so i will explain the problem again : 1. Considering to have a git multi project repository in : /Users/alessio/Documents/git/ureportmanager containing 3 projects in 3 subfolder : project1, project2, project3 2. Then create a fourth project(Plugin Project) in the multirepository and by "mistake" specify in the Location the root folder of the multi projects repo ( /Users/alessio/Documents/git/ureportmanager ) 3. A new project is created in the root folder by eclipse (without creating a new subfolder for the project) 4. Delete the fourth project checking the flag 'Delete project contents on disk' 5. Everything is deleted by eclipse in the multi project root folder (even the .git folder ... ) If you specify a subfolder(/Users/alessio/Documents/git/ureportmanager/project4) in the New Project creation wizard(Location path), when you delete everything works fine, but in the case you don't specify a subfolder in the location field, eclipse doesn't create automatically a new subfolder(with the name of the project for example) and then when you delete the project it delete everything in the folder and not only the files related to that specific project ! It is a severe problem because if i had not the project backup on my git central repository, restore the project would not have been so simple as a git clone ... But i had lost everything ...

I get an error in the project creation dialog that gitmulti (the git root directory) overlaps the location of another project. Or do you mean you didn't have any of the other 3 projects imported when you went to put the fourth project in the multi-git directory? Or that gitmulti was not contained within the workspace filesystem directory? PW
