Thanks for this information. I think that for my next project I will try
harder to properly checkin config files. I ran into problems before
because I didn't really take care about how the team managed these
config files.
Also, could you clarify one point for me? My .project and .classpath
files only contain dependencies and classpath info. I don't have
codetemplates.xml in my project dir (they are in the .metadata directory
of my workspace). How do you manage them? Do you check in your entire
workspace?
