Hi,

Coming back on the Polarion topic :
http://forums.polarion.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=635

I am currently checking out a folder from a SVN repository into an
existing project subfolder.
My Eclipse project is not "shared".
So while choosing this project on Checkout action, the following warning
is displayed : "Destination project is detached from the source control.
So please take into consideration that the plug-in won't provide any SVN
actions for these resources."

The problem is that I expect some SVN actions on the checked out
files/folders (e.g. View/Edit SVN Properties).
Why is the Eclipse project required to be under source control ?
Is there any workaround to bypass this bug/restriction ?

Technically, this does not seem to be a big deal since each checked out
folder has its own SVN information (in .svn folder)...

Thanks
Vincent
