Creating a new Eclipse project with a Git repository [message #1805094] Fri, 05 April 2019 14:02 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I have a Git repository that has one .java file in the src file. I also have a .gitignore file with bin inside it. On my laptop is where I created the project and started working on it. I have a desktop too and I would like to be able to work on the same Git repository.

I can clone my Git repository onto my desktop, but I am having trouble creating a new Java project that uses the Git repository. One time I was able to load up the .java file but when I tried to run the program, there was an error stating the main method could not be found.

I would like to be able to run my .java program and commit using Git while using Eclipse. I am a newbie at Java and Git so if you have any questions please ask away.

I have a similar question. I imported the GitHub project, but how do I set up the project in my Eclipse project workspace?
Do I need to install GitHub workspace(c:\users) to my Eclipse workspace(c:\Projects) before checking out the project ?

My working directory is now c:\users\projectname\.git So I am trying to import the project using the eclipse "import" option. When I try to import by selecting the "Use the new projects wizard" option, the source code is not imported, if I import by selecting the "Import as general project" option, the source code is imported, but the created project created by Eclipse is not a java project. When selecting "Use the new projects wizard" and creating a new java project using the wizard should ' nt automatically import the code ?
