Team menu does not offer Share Project option [message #521535]

Ive been importing 4 projects into EGit.

I have EGit working OK, and 3 project conversions have gone perfectly. The last however, under "Team", does not offer any share project options. All that is listed is "Apply Patch".

By what logic does the EGit plugin enable or disable the option to share via Git?

Ive had a good look at the .project and .classpath files, and I can see nothing unusual in them. No team providers are mentioned.

The main difference is that the problematic project was previously shared via Svn; the others were not. SVN has been disconnected, and there is no mention of Svn in the project def or UI. But I do suspect it is interfering in some way.

Any advice welcomed.

Hi Ben,

The share project option does not come from the EGit Plugin but from the
eclipse team ui plugin. It is shown whenever there is no property
"org.eclipse.team.core.repository" stored for a project in the workspace.

They are not mentioned here. A team provider is stored as
projectPersistentProperty in the Eclipse workspace.

The Disconnect from SVN seems to be buggy. There seems to be still an entry
for this property ("org.eclipse.team.core.repository").You could check this
in your workspace in the file
..metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.projects\<projectname >\.indexes\properties.index.

The easiest workaround would be to delete the project (without deleting
content) and to reimport it again.

Thanks Stefan,

Deleting and recreating the project did indeed clear the problem. Its likely a Svn bug, as you mention.
