i have a java project already versioned with tortoiseSVN. I just installed subeclipse in eclipse and i would like to manage my file with it.
When i try to share my project (right click on it > Team > share > svn) , i choose "Use existing repository location" and select my repository.
My repository have a common structure trunk/tags/branches. But in subeclipse it said that :
The folder indicated by the URL cannot
already exist
So if i choose the trunk folder (where my source code is) subeclipse display an error because this folder already exist.
How can i handle my existing repository with subeclipse without creating new folders ?
Found a solution ! There were un problem beteween the versions of tortoise and subeclipse. I have updated the both to their last version available and every thing works great !

I'm completely new to subversion and I'm unsure how to add and commit a Java Project to an online repository using svn. The goal is to move the important folders in the project including the src, package, and class. I've accessed the online repo and I (assume) I have it as a working copy. When I try to svn add the local project folders however, I am told it is not a working copy. How do I fix this? Is there a way I can make my workspace be the online repo directly? Or do I just copy the folder somehow? I'm using Cygwin and Eclipse.
To add your project to svn you can do it this way:
Right click on your project and select: Team / Share Project...
Select SVN
Select Use Existing Repository Location
Browse to the location you would like your project to reside: typically .../trunk
Click OK and finish
This should have committed your project to SVN. Regarding your question about your entire workspace being the online repo. with each of your individual projects connected to SVN just like I detailed above, you will be able to commit and update your local projects into and from SVN without any issues.
I just opened my eclipse and was presented with following error:
SVN: '0x00000000: Open Project' operation finished with error: 0x00000000: Unable connect to 'my_project' project.
Please check that SVN meta-information exists and its format is supported by the current SVN plug-in version.
If so, it is possible that project working copy is relocated outside plug-in control.
At the current moment project will be automatically disconnected from source control.

I wanted to reconnect the project to SVN and I searched web and found the possible solution is to:
right click on project - > team -> share project
And follow the prompts:
I had 2 options cvs ? svn ? -> I selected svn and clicked next.
select the repository location (use existing repository location). I selected one n clicked next.
However, in the 2 step, it says on the top:
The wizard will help you to share your files with the SVN respository for the first time. Your project will automatically be imported into the SVN repository.
Has anyone tried this to reconnect to SVN repository? I am afraid that is does not starts checking in the project into the location and overwrite the code in repository.
I would only go with the sharing project option if someone is certain that this will not overwrite or check in anything into the repository but only reconnect it.
I tried the same thing. On step 2, it should say:
Project is already configured with SVN repository information.
It will not overwrite or check in anything in this case. Just reconnects.
Your case seems different since it says sharing for the first time. I think it may overwrite.
I had the same issue when I upgraded Eclipse to Juno.
I used Tortoise to upgrade my working copy to SVN 1.7 and then used "Share Project..." in Eclipse and it worked for all my projects.
I have an android project in my eclipse workspace. However, it uses source imported from another location - I dragged the folder onto the project and selected "Link to files and folders". The sources itself exists in a mercurial repo but the project does not. How can I get eclipse to give me a team menu for mercurial sources, is it possible? (I have installed MercurialEclipse plugin) The only thing I can see it offers me is when I right click the project to create a new mercurial repo which is not what I want.
Thanks in advance

The normal solution would be to reference your second set of source as a subrepo.
But since May 2010, issue 11871 shows that subrepos aren't properly recognized by the MercurialEclipse plugin.
Its target resolution is for MercurialEclipse1.9. We are currently at MercurialEclipse1.7.1.
So the other solution would be to make a separate project, referencing directly (and only) your second set of sources, and setup a "project dependency" between your first project and your second Eclipse project.
That second project would include a second Mercurial repo and could be shared easily with MercurialEclipse.
I wish to import an existing CVS managed project into Eclipse. I am currently trying to shift my work on to the Eclipse IDE. Some details about my project and environment below.
I'm working in Linux Ubuntu, the project folder is located on a mounted shared network drive, I have installed the "Eclipse CVS Client" plug-in for my version of Eclipse (Helios).
I've tried many ways for eclipse to use my existing folder as a project and recognize the CVS data in the CVS folders.
I have done the following options:
Created a new project, selected existing source, located my project folder and clicked OK to finish creating. In the end the CVS files weren't automatically read.
Did the same as above and after project creation I wen to the option "project menu->team->share project", it asks me to choose a repository and doesn't automatically find the CVS information in the subfolders.
I have set-up both repositories in my eclipse and can browse the repositories through the CVS browser.
My project directory layout is like this:
+-Project Folder (no CVS folder at this level)
+---Repo A folder
+-----CVS meta-info folder is INSIDE, along with all checked out files from Repo A
+
+---Repo B folder
+-----CVS meta-info folder is INSIDE, along with all checked out files from Repo B
+
+-(couple of random files, not in CVS)
Just right-click on your project and click Team -> Share Project. Eclipse will detect that the folder is already shared and resolve the connection with CVS.
Actually I cannot answer your question (I think it should work as you explaned) but I might have a workaround. Could you remove or rename the existing folder and do a fresh check out from your eclipse/CVS repository exploring view?
I have an eclipse project on my hard disk, which is a fairly recent check out from an SVN repository. I've imported this project into my Eclipse workspace, and now want to associate it with the SVN repository.
How do I do this? The only options I seem to have under Right-click -> Team is "Share Project", which only seems to allow me to do an initial import.
Edit: Motivation - It's a largish repository, and I don't really want to have to import the whole thing over the network.
Edit 2: There are (for some reason) no .svn dirs in the project. So maybe a fresh import from svn is the only option
Team->Share project is exactly what you need to do. Select SVN from the list, then click "Next". Subclipse will notice the presence of .svn directories that will ask you to confirm that the information is correct, and associate the project with subclipse.
I just wanted to add that if you don't see Team -> Share project, it's likely you have to remove the project from the workspace before importing it back in. This is what happened to me, and I had to remove and readd it to the workspace for it to fix itself. (This happened when moving from dramatically different Eclipse versions + plugins using the same workspace.)
subclipse not showing "share project" option on project context menu in eclipse
I'm asked this question very frequently, if it's smart to use "Share project..." if a eclipse project has been disconnected from it SVN counterpart in the repository. So, I append my answer to this thread.
The SVN-Team option "Share project ..." is totally fine for projects that exist in SVN and in your Eclipse workspace, even if the Eclipse project is missing the hidden .svn configuration. You can still connect them. Eclipse SVN-implementation (Subclipse/Subversive) will verify if the provided SVN http(s) source is populated. If yes, all existing files will be copied and linked (checked out in SVN terms) to your very personal Eclipse workspace.
Word of caution:
Do a backup if you depend on you local files. The SVN implementation may vary its behaviour with every release.
If you have multiple projects encapsulated within each other, make sure you point the SVN path to the correct local path.

I came across the same issue. I checked out using Tortoise client and then tried to import the projects in Eclipse using import wizard. Eclipse did not recognize the svn location. I tried share option as mentioned in the above posts and it tried to commit these projects into SVN. But my issue was a version mismatch. I selected svn 1.8 version in eclipse (I was using 1.7 in eclipse and 1.8.8 in tortoise) and then re imported the projects. It resolved with no issues.
I am using Tortoise SVN client. You can alternativley check out the required project from SVN in some folder. You can see a .SVN folder inside the project. Copy the .SVN folder into the workspace folder. Now remove the project from eclipse and import the same again into eclipse. You can see now the project is now associated with svn
In case of SVN servers you have to creating a central repository with all projects. The contents of the repository can be uploaded with the Team/Share command; in case of the Subversive client it automatically runs a commit after the import, so you can upload your files.
This step cannot be circumvented in any way using a centralized version management system such as SVN.
Try this- Close the project then open it. It links with svn automatically,if project was checked out from valid svn path.
