trying for quite some hours now to set it up nicely the solution described in that link below doesn't work for windows users, that just makes a copy.
for windows users this script must be used: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Fwd-git-git-new-workdir-for-Windows-9-td6479570.html (run it as an admin else the symbolic links won't be created) That seems to work, the only problem i currently facing is that when i do a synchronize in eclipse all files are marked as changed (which of course none of them are) Even a hard reset on the branch will not fix that. So still not really a workable nice solution for this problem :( johan On Wed, Jan 4, 2012 at 16:43, Emond Papegaaij <emond.papega...@topicus.nl>wrote: > With git, switching between branches is very fast, but as you said, with > Eclipse it's not.
