Dear guru,

I am working on the product with many supported versions. Each version is stored in separate repository branch. Some of them are pretty old so should be compiled with old version of JVM, also other project specific settings may be applied. From time to time I need to propagate some changes to old versions so I need to change project (or run configuration) settings in order to compile the project. It's very annoying :-) I am just wondering whether is it possible to save somehow project (or run configuration) settings in the repository in order to restore them each time when corresponding branch is checked out.

Thanks in advance,
Vadim

Eclipse stores all project specific settings in a folder called .settings. If you persist this together with .project and .classpath in your source repository, checking out a branch should take you to pretty exactly that state where you left it.
Also launch configurations can be stored in the project, see the option "Shared file" at https://help.eclipse.org/2019-06/topic/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/reference/ref-launchconfiguration-commontab.htm?cp=1_4_2_0
