I want to commit my CDT project to SVN. I am a newbie regarding CDT, and I'd like to know the files describing the project.
The concerned files seem to be :
.project .settings (directory) .cproject .csettings (directory)
What are the purposes of .project and .settings ?
.project just include references to XML files stored in the .csettings directory. Some of my co-workers on other projects don't have this .csettings directory : everything is in the .cproject file. Are there some project properties which could make Eclipse delegates all the CDT settings in XLM files in the .csettings directory ?
And what about .csettings ?
Extra question : what is the .directory ?

The CDT Project provides a fully functional C and C++ Integrated Development Environment based on the Eclipse platform.
About the Eclipse Project The Eclipse Project is an open source project of eclipse.org, overseen by a Project Management Committee (PMC) and project leaders. The work is done in subprojects working against Git repositories.
The CDT is Eclipse's C/C++ Development Tooling project. It is an industrial-strength C/C++ IDE that also serves as a platform for others to provide value-added tooling for C/C++ developers.
.project is where Eclipse starts whenever it opens up the project: it tells the workbench what plugins are needed.
.cproject contains the settings specific to the CDT: your project's choice of build configurations, toolchains, individual tools and so on.
.settings can be used by individual plug-ins to store their own project-level preferences.
I've never come across .csettings...
