Description Eduard Bartsch

2010-05-17 05:44:20 EDT

Currently in Eclipse, repository providers are mapped to a project. This works well in many cases but is problematic if a project contains links to resources that are coming from other repositories (e.g. Git vs. CVS). 

The proposal for 3.7 timeframe is to provide a capability to register a repository provider (programmatically and/or via UI) for a linked resource. All team-/repository-related functionality (Team menu actions, File Modification Validator, Move Delete Hook, Scheduling Rules Factory etc.) should be delegated to the registered provider/hooks. 

The request has been formulated as part of initial 4.0 requirement list. See 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Workspace4.0#Resource_Links.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
