Eclipse Java Git integration [message #1817393]

I inherited an Eclipse Java project. I was able to check it out to my local repository, build and run.
I can't make any changes to the source files. Somehow Eclipse still running the old version of file.
Example:
Old code: FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("C:/dir/FileA.txt");
New code: FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("C:/dir/FileB.txt");
Error message: java.io.FileNotFoundException: c:\dir\FileA.txt (The system cannot find the file specified)
Somehow Eclipse still execute the old code. I was able to open source file with Notepad. I see "C:/dir/FileB.txt".
Windows Eclipse Version: 2019-03 (4.11.0)

Thank you

Is Eclipse actually set up to build your project's code?

How can I check if Eclipse set up to build my project's code?
I can see project in Project Explorer. I can open .java file.

If you open the project's Properties dialog, is there a Java Build Path page? Does that page have a Source tab with an entry for your source folder? Are you running your file as a Java Application, or some other kind of launch?

Check <Global Menu>->Project->Build Automatically. Is it switched on? (Should have a checkmark.)
