I am back to where I was with eclipse and svn. I used to use eclipse for =
manipulating the wonder code and svn on the command line for updating or =
checking in and I used the eclipse "Refresh" menu item to keep them in =
sync. It always seemed as though the version control _should_ integrate =
with the IDE, but it never seemed worth it.

Now, I am using eclipse for manipulating code and git on the command =
line for updating or checking in. Bother.

I tried eGit. I can import the wonder project into eclipse and the =
version control works. But the "wonder" directory is not a eclipse =
project that can be build, but it is just a folder. A whole bunch of =
things do not work, like method lookup and code completion. Even worse, =
method lookup fails every time I hit a dot after a instance name _and_ =
eclipse feels it necessary to throw up a modal dialog box telling me =
what it could not do. Really obnoxious.

If I import the several dozen projects under wonder into eclipse, then I =
get eclipse build goodness. But the git project is usually up in "../.." =
and, for each project, eGit has no idea that the project is under =
version control. Blah.

So, again, the eclipse plugin does a bunch of things, so you kind of =
want it, but it does not do these things completely enough to actually =
be usable. I am right about this? Are there other options?
