Like many of you I need to be able to change between 1.4.x, 1.5.x and
master branches quite a bit in my work. But with different maven
sub-modules within each of those branches, etc, it can be quite messy on
Eclipse to just use git checkout to switch between branches. So, I have
recently started working with a single git repo and several different
working directories based on that repo.
Doing it this way gives me the ability to have separate workspaces. But
they're all based on the same repo, so if I need to cherry pick a commit
from one branch to the other I can commit it in one workspace and change
directory to the other (branch's) workspace and cherry pick it. I never
mess up Eclipse by changing branches that way.
Here's a little script that can get you set up the same way if you'd like
to try it: http://pastebin.com/dmzuvvXY
