projects with symlinks in the path are broken #110

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. create a project with a path which is a symlink into a git working copy
2. egit is unable to locate the .git directory
3. setting the .git directory by hand in
~/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/.org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/...,
either relative or absolute, does not work

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

egit should recognise that the project is a git checkout, but it doesn't

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

0.4.0 / eclipse 3.5.0 / linux (ubuntu 9.04)

Please provide any additional information below.

my project location is of the form /a/b/c, where c is a symlink to /d/e/f/g
and the ".git" directory lives in /d/e/.git

I have a similary issue to, if you create repo in $repo$/$package&.git and then 
working directory somewhere else $xyz$/$package$/ and symlink 
$xyz$/$package$/.git back to repo, team->share project->git does not work. It 
does not recognize it as a git project.
