Creating new project on branch, lost in switch [message #703345]

I have created a new project in a branch. When ever I switch the repo to master and back to the branch, the new project is lost in Eclipse (and dependent projects show errors).

It's really annoying to check out the project time and again.

Is there a way that EGit can remember the number of projects in the workspace per branch?

That would be really great.

Although actually I'd prefer EGit not to remove the projects in the first
place upon switching branches, just close them. This way I won't go hunting
for a project that I "know" should be somewhere in my workspace until I
remember that it doesn't exist in this branch.

Of course EGit should then still reopen the projects it closed previously
once I switch back :)

Best regards,
Carsten
