Build Identifier: 20110615-0604

- My project is stored in a git repository, so under the root project folder, there is a .git folder.
- The project is a Java EE application.
- The project runs in the default tomcat integration 6.0 server.
- The .git folder is published to the server.
- As a result, as the repository history grows, it takes longer and longer to publish a project to the repository.
- For comparison, a project tracked by svn will not publish .svn folders to the repository.

Thanks

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Java EE project.
2. Initiate the project as a git repository.
3. Publish the project to integrated tomcat within eclipse.
4. Verify that the .git folder is published to the server.

Do you use EGit or do you use another tool to interface with your clone?

Right, this is an Egit issue, I create the repository using the git command line (git init), then create the eclipse project from within eclipse. From there, I use Egit to manage all git tasks.
