Re: [mylyn-dev] Do we really need the .classpath/.project/.settings file

That’s the hard part. We export settings and import them. I wish there was a better way, as in moving content out of .project and .settings – I had a bug open on ECLIPSE for this in general that never got fixed.

The filteredResource is used to avoid that a project showed twice in the PackageExplorer View. The filter removes the subfolder of the root repository.

 

If you do not use the .settings you can not set project specific code style like formatting, …

 

How would you manage that all contributors use the requested same settings?

I have seen this too, when Mylyn was in use at my org. I usually keep .cproject, .gitignore, .gitmodules, and .project but not .settings. When .settings is included, we often will use git update-index --assume-unchanged .settings and .project to ignore changes after the initial project setup where we do not yet include Mylyn content.

 

Hope this helps.

So what do I do about changes like this:

     <filteredResources>

           <filter>

                 <id>1672000970093</id>

                 <name></name>

                 <type>10</type>

                 <matcher>

                       <id>org.eclipse.ui.ide.multiFilter</id>

                       <arguments>1.0-name-matches-false-false-org.eclipse.mylyn.*</arguments>

                 </matcher>

           </filter>

           <filter>

                 <id>1672000970100</id>

                 <name></name>

                 <type>10</type>

                 <matcher>

                       <id>org.eclipse.ui.ide.multiFilter</id>

                       <arguments>1.0-name-matches-false-false-mylyn.*</arguments>

                 </matcher>

           </filter>

     </filteredResources>

 

that keep appearing in the top level .project files?

My point is that those files are generated by maven when a project is imported

 

I've noticed that this can cause inconsistency among team members due to environment/system issues. Additionally, .settings such ad Eclipse code formatter and import organization are not manages by M2E AFAIK.
