[news.eclipse.tools.cdt] Re: Using egit with CDT projects?

[Doug Schaefer <cdtdoug@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't use egit. I don't think it's complete enough to use yet.

What I've been doing is using git-gui from the msysgit package (not sure if the same exists on linux and mac). It works very well, especially with CDT's ever chaning .cproject file (i.e. it check content diff, not file timestamps).

I create a git repository at the workspace root and then as I add projects and make changes, it picks them up and 2 or three clicks later, I have the updates pushed to github or my home server.

Git-gui's good. It's written by Shawn Pearce, who is also writing egit, It's what I hope egit will become.
