I accidentally deleted a folder with the project. Restore failed using Recuva (which is strange, I specifically did not touch the folder after deleting to avoid accidentally prezapisat sector). It can store backups Eclipse projects? Can I still recover your project?
If you deleted a folder within the project, you may be able to use Eclipse Local History to recover it.
Right-click on the folder or project containing the files/folders you want to recover
Select Restore from Local History...
Select the files you want to recover, and possibly the edition (save revision)
Press Restore

I am using eclipse to develop a php project, I was wondering if there is a way that on "save" eclipse saves the project on two diferent folders, I want to use my google drive folder as my backup destination and also have my project on my working folder.
Nope. Eclipse doesn't have any function for saving duplicates. However, there are plugins available to make it integrate nicely with Git, SVN, or other revision control systems for proper code backup (assuming you regularly push the commits to a remote repository).
You can also use a synced Google Drive folder as your workspace, and then everything will be synced with that drive.
When I delete a file in the file system, TFS 2013 will correctly show it as still being in version control, but the file will not show as pending delete, and committing changes does not remove the file from the server. If I go to Source Code Explorer, the deleted file shows up as being on the server, but if I try to delete it, I get an error saying The item could not be found in your workspace, which is also correct, but I need to delete the file and I can't find any way to do it. I really do NOT want to have to download each file and manually delete it.
So, how can I get TFS to detect files that are no longer on the local file system and remove them from the server?
Note, my workspace is local, not server. Many sources say that TFS should detect local deletes in a local workspace, but this does not seem to be true, at least, it's not what I'm seeing.
Update: I know that my workspace is local because here's the TFS Workspaces window:
If the changes are not being detected then your workspace is currently configured as a Server Workspace and not a Local Workspace.
If you edit your workspace, click Advanced, and switch the workspace type to Local.
Note: You can check the configuration by looking for the hidden $tf folder in the root of your workspace...
Use /deletes with the tfs power tool: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/buckh/archive/2005/11/16/power-toy-tfpt-exe.aspx#Online
I have an old eclipse java project which is stored in SVN. I wish to create a new one based on the old one but without the SVN files. I'll be doing some experimental changes to it and I want to have the old one as backup basically. Anyone can give advice on how to do this? Thanks
FYI: This has been posted in Javaranch as well
You have a number of options:
Don't do a check-out (which creates the metadata files, allowing for changes to be easily and later committed), but an export instead. From the "SVN Repositories" view in Eclipse, right-click the project folder, then click "Export...".
Just check-out a 2nd copy of the project from SVN, naming it with a different project name in the workspace to keep it distinct. Just refrain from checking-in any changes back to the SVN repository.
Copy the project as usual, and simply delete the SVN metadata files.
Same as #3, but let Eclipse do this for you - using Team / Disconnect.
Accidently deleted the wrong folder from Netbeans! Can it be recovered?
You can Start with this simple tip :
1- Right click on the folder/directory that the files had been deleted.
2- Choose Local History – Restore Deleted
3- Done
If it doesn't Work you will need to use a recovery software :
I highly recommend R-Studio, the demo version might be able to recover your files: r-studio.com
Or you can also use recuva
If you accidentally delete a folder on Netbean, the way to recover it is as follows. You can't revert deleted folders but you can revert deleted files. Follow these steps.
Recreate the folder you deleted in your Netbean project. (You may
not be able to create the folder within Netbean, in that case you
can use mkdir command to create the folder )
Right click that folder in Netbeans and go to History -> revert
deleted (you should see a list of deleted files that relate to that
particular folder.
Repeat for each folder and sub-folder
Note: This solution work for both Windows and Linux.

I had the same problem as well and get it solved with the solution of this post.
I'm looking for a way to convince Eclipse that a directory has indeed been removed from the CVS repository, permanently?
With regular command line CVS I would just edit CVS/Entries in the directory's former parent. With Eclipse, I've tried removing the directory from the Project Explorer view, removing the appropriate line in CVS/Entries, recreating the directory in PE so that it might be removed on update or synchronization, synchronize without recreating the directory, and probably other things that I've since forgotten, and nothing worked.
The directory has been entirely removed from the CVS repository, so I'm not talking about just pruning empty directories here. The error I am seeing is:
The server reported an error while performing the "cvs update" command.
Project: cvs update: cannot open directory /usr/local/cvsroot/one/two/three/removed_directory: No such file or directory
My project contains all of the contents from /usr/local/cvsroot/one/two. I do not get this error when I navigate to "three" and update from there. I only get it when I update from the project root.
One (quite imperfect) solution for this problem is, beside to check-out the project again, to remove CVS information stored by Eclipse.
Go in the right-menu under the project > Team > Disconnect, and check the radiobutton "Also delete the CVS meta information from the file system". Now your project is unshared and has no more CVS information into it. Then you just have to do Team > Share project, select the previous repository location, and you're done (CVS will detect by itself that the project is up-to-date and won't update nor commit anything, of course).
A folder that has been deleted in the cvs repository by hand won't then be proposed anymore by CVS under Eclipse to be commited.
Beware that on a big project with many files, depending on the speed of your network, the re-share may take some time.
Sometimes it may indeed be easier to delete the project and pull it off again from CVS.
I fought this same thing for several hours a couple of separate times. I just gave in and re-checked out the project. That seemed to work like a charm
Handling of directories in CVS is not perfect. This and many other reasons caused in creating more complete SCM tool subversion.
CVS can create directory, but can not remove it. From CVS point of view, to remove directory you need to remove (cvs rm) all files in directory. But directory is still present in CVS and there's no way to remove it. Hovewer, CVS propose a "hack" to hide such "deleted"/empty directories by executing "cvs up -P" (see here).
So, for CVS command line, I wouldn't mess with parent directory CVS/Entries file, but rather use "cvs up -P" described above.
The directory will be listed in the CVS/Entries file under the parent directory. Remove the entry in the Entres file and the directory. Eclipse should recognize the directory has been removed.
Refactoring directories in CVS is problematic. Due to the way CVS handles history one of the following usually applies:
The history of files moved to new locations appears to disappear. (It is located in the history of the old location.)
The history of files is retained, but files appear moved when checking out versions prior to the move. (Files were moved in the repository, rather than in a sandbox.)
Removing or moving directories in the repository generally creates problems for clients. It helps to retain directories and only move or remove files. Normal processing moves deleted files to an Attic sub-directory.
In the Eclipse CVS synchronization perspective, did you try the 'Override and update' option?
If the files/folders are already deleted on the repository, from the Eclipse project perspective, "replace with"->"latest from HEAD" on the folder containing deleted elements
