Hi,
Select any number of entries under Maven Dependencies node in
Project/Package Explorer, right click - Maven - Import projects from scm.
It requires corresponding maven scm connectors to be installed
(m2eclipse-egit for git projects) and it basically checks selected
dependencies out and shows you the usual maven project import dialog with
checked out projects already filled in.
It doesn't update any poms though.
