because most of the time the project files contain user dependend configurations.
User specific files are stored in the workspace folder, at least the .project and .classpath files use only relative paths and are interchangeable between users.
I have checked in eclipse project files for a while now and never had a problem.
Sorry abou that didn't ment do close.
We worked by the rule that we never ever check in anything that is generated by maven or the ide. It should be no problem to check it out and convert it to a maven project.
Ah, the project files are generated. Seems legit.
Why are the eclipse projectfiles in .gitignore? I know the actual build is done via Maven, but having project files for eclipse would ease peeking at the source.
