Re: [ptp-user] git and git-upload-pack over and over...

At the moment, there is no way to display more status. What type of

information would be most helpful to you?

(I'll reply to your other email concerning the sync problems.)

Thanks John for the information, background, and writing the bug.

Unfortunately I can't remove the remnants of the build, so there are
binaries
and other gorp that is probably causing most of my headaches. Is there a
mechanism to display more status more often of what file is being synched
so
I can see where I am in the process?

On a side issue, now I've got the project initially synched. Next I went
on the remote system and added a file or two. [It's just what I had to do.]
When I return to the local Eclipse side and issues a Synchronization >
Sync All Now nothing happens. That is, no progress whatsoever shows in the
Progress view. It's as if the local system no longer knows about the remote
one. So I stopped and started Eclipse, but no change. Is there a more
forceful way to say please sync the two on my local Eclipse system?
