how to get svn repository work in eclipse. i installed svn but cant find the location to repository other than link to it. http://wso2.org/library/67
You'll need to install a eclipse plugin for svn.
This ibm developer works link summarizes the steps and further shows to checkout a code from a svn repo.
You should install an SVN plugin for Eclipse. I'd recommend that you use Subversive, here: http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/

I am new to github and souce control. i have installed the Egit plugin for eclipse
and i have created the repository on website.
Now i want to ask that do i still need to install GIT installer for windows or not
because then whats the need for Egit.
Also i don't know how can i link the Egit with online Git account
No you should need Git installed. By installing the Egit plugin you would have a new option to create a Git project from the File>New Project if I remember correctly.
Edit: Here's a nice tutorial of how to use the plugin.
So I'm able to pull the files out of the svn but I'm unable to get Eclipse to understand these files are part of an SVN.
I have TortoiseSVN install on the system as well, and I'm wondering if that is causing an issue?
Base question, how can I using Eclipse and Subversive checkout a project from my SVN repo?
Use subclipse. Its excellent and you can install it directly from eclipse using the appropriate update site. I prefer it to the subversive plugin and TortoiseSVN.
Either: File > New > Project > SVN > Project from SVN
Or (I like this one better): Go to the "SVN Repository Exploring" View > right click on your project's folder (trunk, for example) > Check Out (or Find/Check Out As...)
Does m2eclipse use EGit for git support or does it just use the native git client installed on a machine?
I have both installed (plus the m2eclipse SCM integration plugin) and I was wondering if I still need EGit if I use m2eclipse's git support.
If you have installed Maven SCM feature, you should be able to checkout projects from Git using Maven SCM provider for Git. This should work for "Checkout projects from SCM" wizard, assuming you know a correct project url to checkout.
m2eclipse has no idea of git, so it needs a plugin which supports git (currently only EGit).
Inside the POM, the situation is different: Here, the Maven plugin (and not the one from Eclipse) is loaded. This SCM maven plugin uses the command line interface of the git client on the machine.
I am playing with my eclipse cvs functionality (on my windows box), is there a way to check out a project hosted on github?
Anyone shows me a pointer? Thanks,
Not with the CVS client. You need to install git for Windows or a git plugin for Eclipse.
CVS and git are two different source code version control systems. Other popular choices are Subversion or Mercurial. You have to use different clients or Eclipse plugins for each of them.
Use EGit, which provides Git support as part of Eclipse and is available in both the latest Helios builds as well as the upcoming Indigo release.
