How to fully remove subversive plugin - eclipse

I've installed Subversive and want to switch to the Subclipse plugin.
After uninstalling Subversive via About Eclipse -> Installation Details -> Uninstall... and installing Subclipse, there are now two SVN options available in Preferences -> Team, one for Subversive preferences (which has been uninstalled and shouldn't be there anymore), and one for Sublipse preferences.
How to remove Subversive completely, so that there aren't any traces (such as Subversive's preferences screen) left in Eclipse?

Remove from Eclipse's plugins and features folders all files and folders like:
org.eclipse.team.svn*
org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn*

Help->about eclipse->installation details->Installed Software tab
You can choose the software to uninstall.

If you have installed Subversive via Eclipse Marketplace:
From Eclipse menu open Help -> Eclipse Market Place...
Then search for subversive, click uninstall under Subversive - SVN Team Provider
Restart the Eclipse.

Eclipse Luna, can't UPDATE TO HEAD

I recently installed Eclipse Luna, when I right click on my FORCE.COM project, I can no longer find the option to UPDATE TO HEAD.
Am I missing a plugin or some configuration step?
Seems as a subversion plugin is missing. I would recommend installing Subversive through the eclipse marketplace. Afterwards you have to install a SVN connector, you should choose SVNKit.

Subversive SVN Connectors does not appear in eclipse juno

the Subversive SVN Connectors does not appear after rebooting eclipse Juno IDE after installing svn from the eclipse marketplace.
any ideas?
Because of this issue i cannot assign a svn connector to the svn eclipse plugin so therefore it cannot do any svn features at all.
i am running windows 8 and tried to run eclipse in Admin mode but still no joy. anywhere i can download the connectors manually and if so, where do i install it?
Might help someone...
From polarion use this update site.
I installed just
subversive SVN Connectors
SVNKit 1.7.5.v1 Implementation
SVN Team provider connectors source
After this I found in eclipse preferences Team->SVN has the svn kit 1.7.5 selected and everything started to working.
Just remove .metadata folder in your workspace directory and restart
then windows -> preference -> team -> svn click. It will appear
For me, switching to a fresh workspace fixed the issue. I followed this link. The automatic connector discovery tool popped up once I switched to a new workspace.
I cannot add new comments. Just facing same problem. Updating #Saran answer:
Eclipse Mars site is
http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/5.0/mars-site/
Eclipse Luna site is
http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/4.0/luna-site/
Eclipse Kepler site is
http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/3.0/kepler-site/
You can install svn conectors manually from there.
(Remember: Help menu -> Install new software -> paste site url)
Can I suggest the CollabNet Eclipse desktop instead of the Marketplace SVN?
http://desktop-eclipse.open.collab.net/
I've found its installation to be much less painful than any other way of getting SVN into Eclipse.
Switching workspaces worked.
Also for newer Subversive version`s, the connectors show on the:
windows > preferences > team > svn (in a tab inside this window), instead of the old svn > connectors menu.
Close your Eclipse.
In your workspace directory, open (.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.team.svn.ui.prefs).
Change the option firstStartup=false to firstStartup=true.
Re-open Eclipse again.

Eclipse Maven: no "Checkout Maven project from SCM" option

I have to compile and run a Maven project that some colleagues of mine developed some years ago. I'm using Eclipse Helios on Microsoft Windows Server 2008.
In their documentation about how to compile it with Eclipse, I read that I have to install on my Eclipse:
Maven plugin (from http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e )
Maven plugin extra (from http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-extras )
Subclipse plugin ( http://subclipse.tigris.org )
After installed these plugins, their document says to select the option "Checkout Maven Project from SCM" and other operations.
I've tried to install these plugins, but, first, I realized that they are antiquated.
I discovered that Maven Plugin changed name and address (now is Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.2), and that Maven Plugin Extra does not exist anymore.
Subclipse, instead, is available.
So I installed these plugins, but, afterwords, no "Checkout Maven Project from SCM" functionality was present on my Eclipse.
Then I searched online to solve this problem, and I found this thread on StackOverflow.com. It suggested to install the Maven SCM handler for Subclipse.
I've searched it on the plugin repository of Elcipse but it does not exist anymore.
Which Eclipse plugin may I use to get the "Checkout Maven Project from SCM" functionality on my Eclipse IDE ?
Thanks a lot
When you go to Window -> Preferences -> Maven -> Discovery, you have a button "Open Catalog", which opens a plugin marketplace specific to the m2e plugin. There you'll find a plugin called m2e-subclipse, which should give you the appropriate options:
Change the installed sub version to have m2 plugin. then check out as maven shows up.
Eclipse Marketplace -> Installed -> Subversive SVN -> Change -> Subversive SVN Integration for the M2E Project (Optional) and install it.
see images below.
I have recently run into same issue and found solution, as preferences trick mentioned in this post did not work for me.
All you need to do is to go back to your SVN installation (tested for subversive, guess similar for subclipse) and check m2e integration plug-in.
In my case: Eclipse Marketplace -> Installed -> Subversive SVN -> Change -> Subversive SVN Integration for the M2E Project (Optional) and install it.
I have a workaround , since I was not able to find m2e-subclipse in Window -> Preferences -> Maven -> Discovery.You need to check out the project.Once done, right click on the Project Explorer and Import->Maven->Existing Maven Project and select the checked out project and click Finish.
Just a heads up for anybody seeing this again for future versions of Eclipse.
Sonatype is no longer maintaining this:
You can either use the fork currently being maintainted in github [https://github.com/subclipse/m2e]:
https://dl.bintray.com/subclipse/releases/m2e/1.0.x/
Or you can use the eclipse maintained link for the eclipse version:
https://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases/1.9/1.9.1.20180912-1601/
Install either one by using the "install new software" link in Eclipse above "Eclipse Marketplace"
I used eclipse version 2022-12 from this website https://mergedoc.osdn.jp/
After I face this problem and try many ways. Finally, I got the solution.
Right-click on repo
Select Find/Check Out As...
Choose Check out as a project with the name specified, then input your project name alias
After checkout is finished. Right-click on the project.
Select Configure > Convert to Maven Project.

Checkout Maven project from SCM - no connectors

I have a problem with checkout Maven project in Eclipse Indigo. I've installed m2e plugin, Subclipse, Git, but can't select appropriate SCM type ? How to solve this ?
Affan was correct. The connectors are all still there in Indigo, just hidden a little.
Start Eclipse and open preferences.
Find the Maven group and expand it.
Select the "Discovery" item and click "Open Catalog".
A dialog will pop up with all the goodies. The connectors are at the bottom.
I ran into this issue with Eclipse where when you would try to Import a project via:
"Check out Maven Projects from SCM" from the project expoler the "scm url" drop down box would be empty.
After googling around, you must have subclipse installed from the Eclipse Marketplace (which I did) AND "Maven SCM handler for Subclipse" from the "Help->Install new software" dialog box (which I did not).
How to get Maven SCM Handler for Subclipse:
Assumption: You have Subclipse installed.
Click Help->Install New Software
Click "Add..." to add a new software site.
Add this site: http://subclipse.tigris.org/m2eclipse/1.0 (Alternative URL: http://subclipse.tigris.org/m2eclipse/latest/)
Select the Maven SCM handler for Subclipse
Install
You can now use the Project Explorer context menu of "Import -> Maven -> Check out Maven Projects from SCM" and actually have a SCM URL to choose from in the drop down box, namely "svn".
Tested with Eclipse Juno
Looks like there is some incompatibility issue between Indigo and m2eclipse. This discussion gives more details including a possible solution.
Hope this helps.
Edit 1: Uninstalled m2eclipse 0.12.x from Indigo and installed m2e from Eclipse's m2e releases repository. This version shows a link to download m2e scm connectors from Eclipse marketplace (when you try to check out a maven project from scm). I could see connectors for cvs, git and subversive.
For those using subclipse 1.8.x there is a patched version of the m2e connector.
Here is the update site: http://subclipse.tigris.org/m2eclipse/1.0
(Thanks to RockyMM for posting the link to the WONTFIX issue, which contained the link to the patched version.)
Indigo comes with m2e pre-installed. To get the connectors just click on link where it says find more connectors in the m2e marketplace. From there i installed the m2e-subclipse connector. This is a different approach from previous versions of Eclipse where you had to install another plugin from market place called "Maven Integration for Eclipse (Extras)".
There was an unofficial update of SVN connector. To install it go to http://subclipse.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1557 download attachment org.sonatype.m2e.subclipse.feature-0.13.0-SNAPSHOT-site.zip and follow the steps:
Unzip the file to an empty folder somewhere, remember that folder
In Eclipse,
go to Help/Install New Software…
Click “Add…” to add a new site
In the window, click on “Local…” and choose the folder where you unzipped the
site before. The result in the Location field should look like file:/C:/
theUnzipFolder/
Click OK, choose all available packages to install, and continue the
installation as usual
This is related answer by "technocrat" with new update site URLs.
This is working with Eclipse 2019-12:
The problem: "Check out Maven Projects from SCM" from the project explorer the "scm url" drop down box is be empty.
You must have subclipse installed from the Eclipse Marketplace AND "Maven SCM handler for Subclipse".
How to get Maven SCM Handler for Subclipse:
Background: The original website of this project (http://subclipse.tigris.org/) redirects to https://github.com/subclipse. The subproject "m2e" is important.
Here, you will find a link to an Eclipse update site: https://dl.bintray.com/subclipse/releases/m2e/1.0.x/. Add this to the eclipse update sites.
Now you will see "Maven SCM handler for Subclipse". Install it.
You can now use the Project Explorer context menu of "Import -> Maven -> Check out Maven Projects from SCM" and actually have a SCM URL to choose from in the drop down box, namely "svn".

Subversive for Eclipse not visible

I installed the subversive plugin for Eclipse to use SVN. The installation was OK, no problems. I restarted Eclipse, the plugin is visible by "Installed software". But if I look at Team -> share or Window -> preferences team SVN is not visible. Someone an idea?
Did you try switching to the svn repository perspective? Can you see it (top right corner, drop down menu, "other")?
