Hi, I meant "have you imported your project into Eclipse and seen how MercurialEclipse handled it?" but I have the answer.
The default I know is that the project folder holds the `.hg` folder and if this is not the case, one of the ancestors to the project folder does. I have never heard of a project having a repository folder that is "unrelated" to its ancestry line like in the scenario that you describe. I think it is not supported. However, it may be possible to make it so that the location of the repository becomes a setting instead of being implicit. If feasible and implemented, it won't be available before weeks or even months though. I can think of two solutions that you can try to see whether they work with the current MercurialEclipse: - share the project, which will create a repository in <path>/workspace/project/.hg and push from that repository to the repo in <path>/src (it feels and probably is cumbersome) - create a symbolic link to the .hg folder in <path>/src. Please open an issue report and I'll be thinking of all of this in the meantime. 2017-12-09 2:00 GMT+01:00 <[email protected]>: > On Friday, December 8, 2017 at 4:34:39 PM UTC-5, Amenel Voglozin wrote: >> >> Have you tried it with Eclipse itself? >> > > I'm not sure what you mean by that.
