Description John Arthorne

2010-08-30 16:20:17 EDT

While reviewing the contents of the /cvsroot/eclipse repository, I found the following directory:


johna@dev1:/cvsroot/eclipse> ls -al |grep hyades

drwxrwsr-x+   2       7233                     8081    48 2004-08-11 15:45 org.eclipse.hyades.nls


This org.eclipse.hyades.nls was almost certainly created in the wrong place in the distant past (Hyades is a former name for TPTP). It has no contents, and the owner/group of the directory seem to be undefined. Please delete this directory to avoid the clutter in our CVS repository.

Done.

Actually there are a few more empty directories. I'm going to reopen this rather than opening separate bugs for each one:

johna@dev1:/cvsroot/eclipse> find . -maxdepth 1 -empty -type d
./org.eclipse.equinox.persistence
./org.eclipse.swt.examples.graphics
./cdt-contrib
./org.eclipse.webdav.tests
./org.eclipse.jdt.core.manipulation.tests
./org.eclipse.ui.testing
./org.eclipse.equinox.startup
./org.eclipse.pde.releng
./pde-doc-home

I'm just going to ask quickly on the PMC mailing list to see if anyone knows a reason these should exist. If we hear no complaints I think we can just delete these.

Hi John, please do not delete org.eclipse.swt.examples.graphics.
It is suppose to be the plugin for the graphics example but we never got around to add the code to it. We plan to finish it at some point.
