Keep in mind, though, that even if eclipse-build were a subdirectory in the same tree as the rest of Linux Tools, you could still view the log only for that directory by saying 'git log eclipse-build'. It's faster to execute than it is to type. ;-) As a non-Linux tooler, I think this is an important point. If I were you I'd be tempted to start with one repo. You can always split projects out later at no cost or effort. Importantly egit history view will correctly show commits filtered by the 'eclipse-build' project as you'd expect.

You can have more than one root commit in a git object database. I don't know if that would really offer any advantages over having two separate repositories, though it might make it slightly nicer if you ever have reason to move/copy code between eclipse-build and the rest of the projects. [...] Personally I work on very few subprojects inside LinuxTools (currently only eclipse-build); my main concern is whether I will be able to quickly get up to date with changes in these subprojects without having to filter unrelated commits out of the log (from other subprojects). So if these separate root commits would allow me to do that, then I think I will not have any issues with having everything in a single repository. ~Niels _______________________________________________ linuxtools-dev mailing list linuxtools-dev@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxtools-dev
