Description Mathias Kinzler CLA 2010-08-23 03:41:24 EDT 
Due to the fix of bug 322420, the preference that holds the list of Git Repositories to be shown in the Git Repositories View has changed. Consequently (and unfortunately), when upgrading EGit, the Repositories View will be empty after that upgrade.
In order to restore the view, there are several options:
1. if you still have any resources in your workspace that belong to the missing repository, open the context menu in the explorer and hit Team->Show in Repositories View or Show In->Git Repositories; this should add the Repository back to the view
2. you can use the "Add a Git Repository" toolbar button of the view to browse your file system for the location of your Repository and add it using the dialog
3. if you know the location of your repository in the local file system, copy the path to the clipboard and hit "Paste Repository Path" in the context menu of the view (or CTRL-V).

Use the described workaround.
