M2e dev env setup page [1] is reasonably up to date. Maybe you didn't
let m2e install tycho project configurator?
No, it went through the connector installation.
When I first did this, I wasn't aware of these instructions you cite, so
I did this again with these instructions in mind, using a fresh Eclipse
Mars.2 install and a new workspace.
When I first searched for the m2e codebase, I found it on github at
"https://github.com/eclipse/m2e-core";. I notice that these instructions
refer to "git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/m2e/m2e-core". I diffed these
two, and I think they're identical.
Nevertheless, after cloning the two specified repos, it then says
"import org.eclipse.m2e.workspace, m2e-core and m2e-core-tests as
existing maven projects". Looking at the two github repos I just cloned
according to the instructions, I don't find "org.eclipse.m2e.workspace"
anywhere.
Nevertheless, for whatever reason, I didn't see the same symptom here.
When it seemed to finish processing, all the Java projects were
recognized as Java projects.
Note that I did see compile errors about "EasymportJob cannot be
resolved to a type" in the "importer" project, but from a quick internet
search, it seems like that's a recent issue, and I don't care about that
at this point, so I'm fine with this for now.

I'd like to get acquainted with the m2e codebase, initially for a
somewhat trivial reason, as I know it does something simple with its POM
editor view that I plan to implement in a different plugin. At some
point in the future, however, I'd like to work on some possible
enhancements to make it a tiny bit easier for "other" kinds of
developers to create projects that are Maven projects, without having to
deal with some details.
Is there a "Developer's Guide" that describes how to properly configure
the cloned repo in Eclipse for navigating and editing? I've imported all
the Maven projects, but what I noticed is that Eclipse doesn't know they
are Java projects. Is there something simple I have to do for that?
