Re: [m2e-users] import project from git workflow

[Alejandro.Endo@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Jason, I already have
 Maven SCM Handler for EGit	0.14.0.201207041402
org.sonatype.m2e.egit.feature.feature.group	Sonatype, Inc.
installed. Everything I described still happened with it (i.e not being
able to have a working project in less than 3 steps vs 1 for cvs/svn)

the version you mention is newer though, but has this particular issue I
mentioned been fixed since? I can't test this until ~ Monday

Use the m2eclipse-egit connector if you want to import a Maven project from
a Git repository:

install new software using this URL:

      I am trying to import a github repo into eclipse. Ideally i would
      like to
      do everything in a single wizard which 1) clones the remote repo
      locally,
      2) generates the eclipse metadata 3) imports the project and leaves
      it
      ready to commit. This is exactly the current workflow with SVN and
      CVS
      using "Checkout Maven project from SCM": in one wizard you end up
      with a
      compilable/runnable/commitable project in your workspace

      Given that git is distributed, I think it's acceptable (not ideal) to
      have
      two steps (wizards), one where you only clone the repo, and another
      where
      you maven-import the projects in it. However even this doesn't
      currently
      work. From the git repositories view (or perspective) I can right
      click on
      the local clone and select "Import maven project". This scans my
      maven
      structure and lets me select which projects to import. This imports
      the
      project quasi-correctly: i can compile and run, however, i cannot
      commit.
      My eclipse project is not linked to the local repo even though i
      started
      the whole import by right clicking on it. Is this a bug? if I import
      from a
      repo i obviously want to commit to that same repo. Am I doing it
      wrong? is
      it m2e the one that handles these imports from a git repo?

      i know i can do "team/share project" but my point is that the fact
      you
      need to do this looks like a bug to me.

      What do you guys think? if someone agrees I will open a ticket for it
      if
      there's not one already
