Hi,
I'm developing an application that is supposed to run on both Android as well as regular Java SE.
I have an eclipse project called foobar-core which contains code that is used both by the Android and the SE version. I have another project called foobar-android, which contains all android-specific code.
I need to reference some of the foobar-core code in the foobar-android project, so I added foobar-core to foobar-android in Settings -> Java Build path -> Projects -> Required projects on the build path. This works fine, as I can use code from foobare-core in foobar-android now.
Here's the problem: Both foobar-core and foobar-android are independent git repositories, which means they both have a .git subdirectory. Now I get a lot of warnings on the "Console" tab whenever I compile foobar-android. They look like this:
/foobar-core/src/.git/HEAD conflicts with another file already put at .git/HEAD
/foobar-core/src/.git/config conflicts with another file already put at .git/config
/foobar-core/src/.git/description conflicts with another file already put at > .git/description
/foobar-core/src/.git/hooks/applypatch-msg.sample conflicts with another file already > put at .git/hooks/applypatch-msg.sample
How can I tell Eclipse to ignore the .git files when importing sources from the foobar-core project?
