1.3.0.201201172015

The fix for bug 350866 (Projects disappear when switching branches) causes problems when a project gets deleted in a branch: we end up with a ghost project.

Steps to reproduce:

1. create branch 'A' from a certain remote branch
2. create branch 'B' from a certain remote branch
2. import a project
3. delete the project and commit the change
4. switch back to branch 'A'

==> The deleted project appears again but it is empty and not filled with the content from branch 'A'.

Was the project only imported after branch B was created and checked out?

> 2. import a project

should be "3."

I import the project only after creating the branch (checked it out automatically during creation).

Just tried again using 1.3.0.201201221914.

I'm not having success reproducing this.

When you switch back to A, the project is re-added and open but missing content, so the .project file is there but none of the other files?

Is the repository public that this is occurring with?

I just tried with 1.3.0.201201250623 and couldn't reproduce either.
