EGit doesn't attach itself to projects in the Resource Explorer [message #809412]

I recently installed the EGit 1.3.0 release into my Eclipse Helios SR2 install on OSX Snow Leopard. I really appreciate the new support for git submodules, but I've run into a show-stopper problem: newly-cloned git projects don't interact with EGit. Existing projects still work fine; I can right-click -> Team -> Pull/Push/Fetch/etc. But newly-imported projects have nothing in the Team menu, and don't show the [ProjectName master] text, nor the status decoration icons. This happens on both the PHP Explorer and PyDev Package Explorer views.

Have I got something misconfigured? Should I re-install EGIt from scratch, since I upgraded from a 1.2.x nightly build?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just to confirm, these projects are from submodules or root level repository?

They're from root-level repos. I don't personally use the submodule feature, but one of my colleagues does, which is why I'm glad that EGit now supports it.

I'm experiencing the same issue with Eclipse 3.7.2 on both Mac OS X Lion and Solaris Express 11 X86.

I've found that if I clone the repository (using the 'URI' and not the 'Local' option) that it displays the status decoration but importing subsequent sub-projects with the 'Local' option does not.

Are you importing from "File > Import... > Projects from Git" or from selecting the repository from the Git Repositories view and running the "Import Project..." menu option?

OK, it looks like the Right-click -> "Imports Projects..." menu option from the Git perspective does work. I didn't know about that method of import, so thank you for the suggestion.

But with previous versions of EGit, the "File -> Import -> Projects from Git" method worked fine, so there's still a bug here that needs to be fixed.

You are right, the "File -> Import -> Projects from Git" is currently broken.

It has been reported as bug #372789 and a fix has been proposed and a fix will hopefully be in the 2.0 nightlies soon.

The bug is fixed now and will be available in the nightlies tonight.

Btw.: As a workaround you switched interaction with EGit in the context menu of the projects with Team > Share Project... -> Git and then checking the checkbox "Use or create repository ...".

I've updated to the nightly build and everything works just fine!

Thanks to all!
