Git not available for an imported CMake project [message #1752344]

I've used EGit for Java projects for years without issues.

Now I imported a C/C++ CMake project that checked out from Github using command line git into my workspace and the Package Explorer -> Team menu only shows Apply Patch ... / Share Project for the project. Also no '>' is shown to left of the project name in the Package Explorer.

If I try to Share Project the wizard won't let me do it because something overlaps something if I point the wizard to the existing git repo.

I imported the project using Import Existing Project and pointing it to the CMakeFiles directory inside my build directory. This created the project nicely except it created a [Source directory] link to the source code, I assume that is because the source code is not under the build directory, of course.

So is the source of the problem and how should I rectify this?

Is there a better/correct way to import CMake projects into Eclipse?

The project is question is FreeCAD in case that makes a difference.

Can you provide detailed steps to reproduce ?
Which Eclipse installation are you using (package and version) ?
Which EGit version are you using ?

Hi, thanks for looking into this,I described this in my SO post,
I copy paste it from there to here, I'll paste my eclipse configuration at the end:
-------------------------

I'm trying to use Eclipse to work with FreeCAD project.

I'm following these instructions as they seem to match my situation:

http://www.mantidproject.org/Setting_up_Eclipse_projects_with_CMake

What I've done:

I checked out the FreeCAD project from Github:

https://github.com/FreeCAD

to my home folder with:

mkdir ~/FreeCAD
cd ~/FreeCAD
git clone https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD FreeCAD-git

I then created a build folder:

mkdir build
cd build

I then ran CMake like this:

cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -DECLIPSE_CDT4_GENERATE_SOURCE_PROJECT=TRUE ../FreeCAD-git

In Eclipse I did 'Import Existing Project...' and pointed the import wizard to the build folder and it duly created the .cproject and .project files there.

The project displays just fine in the Package Explorer (as FreeCAD_trunk@build) but there is no '>' mark next to the project name to indicate that it is associated with a git repo.

If right click on the project and select 'Team' there are only two options in the submenu (`Apply Patch...` / `Share Project...^), a further indication that EGit has not picked up the git repo.

I the GitRepo view I can view the repo and work with it but because the project is not 'associated' with it I cannot commit or do 'anything git' with the project files.

If try '`Team/Share Project...`' and point the share project wizard to the git repo it complains:

Cannot move project FreeCAD_trunk@build to target location /Users/nyholku/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-git/FreeCAD_trunk@build, as this location overlaps with location /Users/nyholku/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-git, which contains a .project file

So I'm at loss how make EGit recognise the `/Users/nyholku/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-git/.git` repo.
