Hi Tu,

If you add this to your .emacs file:

(ede-enable-generic-projects)

the new VCS based projects will be enabled along with the Makefile, 
SCons, etc projects.

If you've already done that, I must say I didn't put in tests for all 
those project types because I was worried about the anchor 
files/directories from other VC systems messing up my own VC in CEDET. 
Instead I test a mock VC system.

It could also be I messed something up.  Please check in 
lisp/cedet/ede/generic.el for the function ede-enable-generic-projects 
to see if your VC system is properly represented.

This is a great thing to try out, as I think it should be possible to 
replace `ede-cpp-root' with the generic project type which would make 
setup for new users much easier since all you need to do is:

M-x customize-project

to get similar features.

Thanks
Eric
