after cloning the eclipse repo and then doing git checkout R4_2_maintenance git pull --recurse-submodules the eclipse submodules are still empty. i.e. the directory structure looks like: .../eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator .git .gitignore .gitmodules devutils description.txt submodule_pull_r42x.sh eclipse-platform-parent pom.xml eclipse.jdt (empty dir) eclipse.jdt.core (empty dir) <...> pom.xml <...> I see the submodule_pull_r42x.sh script that looks like it will populate the subdirs, but shouldn't the --recurse-submodules do that? I took a chance and did bash devutils/submodule_pull_r42x.sh which failed with rt.equinox.incubator no such file or directory then created that subdir, switched back to r4_2_maintenance and tried again. After apparently executing ok, the subdirs are still empty. Any reason why all those cd eclipse.jdt.core ; git checkout R3_8_maintenance ; git pull ; cd .. things apparently did nothing? Are the subdirs all totally separate repositories which have to be separately set up in git? Or do I need to manually set them up as submodules? or??? New to git and the eclipse build structure so likely pretty confused... Thanks, Gary
