I have a project using mercurial for version control, and I'm trying to set it up in Eclipse. I cloned the project from the command line and then opened the project in eclipse by importing it as a maven project.
This works except for that eclipse/MercurialEclipse doesn't seem to pick up that this is an merurial repo.
If I go to project properties, the Mercurial option shows only the message "This project doesn't use MercurialEclipse as a Team provider."
In the "Team Synchronizing" perspective, Synchronize... just gives me a "clone repository wizard" saying "There are no Mercurial resources to syncrhonize".
Does anyone know how to get MercurialEclipse to pick up the existing repository for the project.
Installation of MercurialEclipse in Eclipse The simplest way to install Mercurial is to go on the Eclipse Marketplace “Help → Eclipse Marketplace” and get the plugin. This way you will get only the plugin and not the Mercurial binaries. Unfortunately the versions available are not up-to-date.
MercurialEclipse is a plugin for the Eclipse IDE providing support for the Mercurial distributed version control system. Please note: Mercurial binaries must be installed separately: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/ Categories: Code Management, Collaboration.
Figured this out myself.
Right click the project and choose Team > Share project...
That gives a wizard for enabling mercurial integration for the project.
