Description Alexander Kurtakov

Steps to reproduce:
1. Clone http://github.com/sonatype/sonatype-tycho.git
2. Start importing projects
3. Select Use the New Project Wizard radio from the Method for Project Creation
4. There is no way to select which part of the repo you want to import as new project. Note that selection is possible in both Import Existing packages and Import as general project selections.

It would be good to be able to import only part of a repo as new project.

This is an enhancement request

Well.... The "New project wizard" does in fact allow to specify a "selection" when it is called (the INewWizard interface inherits from IWorkbenchWizard the init method which takes an IWorkbench and an IStructuredSelection argument. However, since at this point in time the Repository is just some folder in the local file system, I can't think of anything useful to provide here as selection. Or am I mistaken here?

I think this is the same problem as in bug 324145, please see there.
