An example for you. I have a branch in the georeferencing2 branch but it is not present in the master branch. The following shows that georeferencing is not present in master $ git checkout master Switched to branch 'master' $ ls plugins/eu.udig.image.georeferencing ls: cannot access plugins/eu.udig.image.georeferencing: No such file or directory But switching to georeferencin2 branch the georeferencing plugin is available $ git checkout georeferencing2 Switched to branch 'georeferencing2' $ ls plugins/eu.udig.image.georeferencing build.properties icons META-INF nl plugin.xml src Probably you don't add / commit your test branch Aside, eclipse don't know git staff, as I comment I think it is necessary to maintain different workspace (one for branch). I mean eclipse ws1 -> b1 eclipse ws2 -> b2 Maybe, someone can recommend a better practice. cheers -- Mauricio Pazos _______________________________________________ User-friendly Desktop Internet GIS (uDig) http://udig.refractions.net http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/udig-devel
