Hi list,
I felt quite helpless when trying to get egit running as neither
http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/EclipsePlugin nor the README/INSTALL aren't overly verbose.

I put the idiot-proof recipe on
http://wiki.jcurl.org/index.php5?title=GitSvn#Eclipse_Plugin - maybe you can weave it into either wiki or INSTALL?

Greetings,
M

You mean they *are* overly verbose? Our INSTALL has a lot more details than your wiki, so I'm not sure I understand your problem.

) 7: uncheck all *.test projects
not important

) 10: restart eclipse with parameter -clean
probably a good idea, though I have never needed it

We're going to set up an official update site in the not too distant future.

Cheers,

Hi Robin,
first of all thanks for opening git to the eclipse users.

No, that's in fact a typo of mine. They are not overly verbose.

| Our INSTALL has a lot more details than your wiki,

Yes, surely. I didn't aim to best your wiki page (as it's THE opening reference within my notes).

| so I'm not sure I understand your problem.

As I had never compiled or packaged an eclipse plugin before, I had my trouble finding the relevant export and options. (Right-click, bla, and so on).

Felt like a complete idiot at first glance. Which bothers neither you nor me, but I almost dropped it. And that would have bothered me, so I scratched that itch further and just recorded the successful "scratch" - the recipe.

| ) 7: uncheck all *.test projects
| not important

the better.

| ) 10: restart eclipse with parameter -clean
| probably a good idea, though I have never needed it

fine if it does without -clean.

| We're going to set up an official update site in the not too distant future.

That's great!

If you find the recipe (except steps 7 and 10) useful, put it into INSTALL or the wiki page, otherwise forget about it.

Greetings,
Marcus
