Hi Rob,
1) After I branch, I can not figure out how to switch my project to use
the new branch. For example, I have a plugin called Administrator. I
have branched it to another location so I can do some changes without
bothering anyone else. I noticed that subversion has a command called
switch that will point my working directory to the branch. Does
subclipse have the capability to do this? If not, what are other doing
in this situation?
You could always try the command line - svn switch. Type "svn help
switch" for more info.
2) I have tried to add a project using the "Add As..." option and point
to an external working directory. I keep getting an error. Is it
possible to add a project to an external working directory?
Create a new Eclipse project, clear the "use default" check box and type
in the path to your working copy. Once it has been created, right-click
on the project in the Navigator window, go to Team->Share Project...
Choose SVN as your provider, wait for Next > to be enabled and click it.
You should get a window showing that Subclipse has spotted the existing
SVN information, and you just need to accept this all and it should be
fine.
If you have already created the Eclipse project externally, use Import
rather than New Project; otherwise the procedure is the same.
