How to Create Eclipse Project from SVN Working Copy

I don't want to checkout a new project and i don't wan't to use the share function.

what i want to do is: i already have a folder in my eclipse workspace which is an svn working copy. i just want to import it as a project from disk so eclipse knows it's connected to svn.

A:

Add the project to your workspace as you would any other project then use share. I know you said you don't want to, but despite sounding like it will share it as a new project in SVN it does what you want in this case where the project already has SVN metadata in it.

well it then asks for the repository location and it won't work with every project. also i takes very long to use the share project function. also it will checkout the whole project again to a temp folder (whyever) but all information is already in the .svn folders. it's a very bad soloution imo. there should be a function, "import working copy from disk" or simply a function to detect existing .svn and .git etc...

Well, if this isn't working I'm not sure what other options you have. I agree there should be an explicit way to deal with this but I don't think there is.Here's another similar question that seems to indicate the same: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1265549/import-an-existing-svn-project-into-eclipse

so it seems there isn't a a soloution for this problem until eclipse devs add that feature -.-
