Description Boris Bokowski CLA 2012-02-02 08:59:01 EST 
Build Identifier: 

The Platform UI Git repository is mirrored at
https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse.platform.ui . In its current form, it looks a
bit foreign on GitHub because there are no pointers back to eclipse.org where
you would find relevant information about the project.

I am going to add a README file to improve this situation. You can
see a posterchild readme file at https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap (and lots of other Git repositories on GitHub). Note that this file already has value independently of GitHub, because Git repositories can be cloned at will. With this file, there will be basic information pointing back to eclipse.org at the repository top-level.

Reproducible: Always

Pushed - I hope I didn't screw up anything ;-)

Btw - feel free to improve the readme content.
