Description Lars Vogel

It appears that if a project is under version control from EGit that Eclipse cannot delete the project. 

To test:

1.) Create repo with serveral projects
2.) Select one and delete
3.) Make you select "Delete project content on disk" flag

You get an error that deletion is not possible.

Could you please attach a screenshot of the error or the text of it?

@Kevin: You should be able to reproduce this easily. I seems that you also need to have at least one file of the project in an editor to get the error.

Are there any other cause exceptions listed in the log?

@Kevin: Were you able to reproduce? Should be easy and then you could have a look at the message directly.

Comment 6 Kevin Sawicki

I was not able too, what version are you running of EGit?

Comment 7 Lars Vogel

2011-11-17 14:40:00 EST

The official release with EGit with Indigo SP2. Did you have a file open from the project which should get deleted and a git repo with several projects?

Haven't seen that in a while. Closing as fixed (in Eclipse 4.2).
