Sergiu, If you think I should never need to maintain two Git clones I might be missing something obvious. Let's say I want to use the m2e approach for selective debugging, and the import existing projects approach (non-m2e) for global code browsing. If I run mvn eclipse:eclipse it will create Eclipse metadata files in the Git projects, and this metadata is specific to the previously done Maven command line build. If I then use m2e to attempt to import Maven projects from the same clone the import will try to create its own Eclipse project metadata in the Git clone, which I would think is incompatible with the project metadata from mvn eclipse:eclipse. Or, I'm hopelessly confused and a lost cause :-)

You should never have to maintain two different clones. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
