Team Repository Provider

org.eclipse.team.core.repository

2.0

The Team plugin contains the notion of Repositories. The job of a repository is to provide support for sharing resources between Team members. Repositories are configured on a per-project basis. Only one repository can be mapped to a project at a time.

Repositories that extend this extension point can provide implementations for common repository specific rules for resource modifications, moving and deleting. See the following interfaces for more details IFileModificationValidator and MoveDeleteHook.

A Repository type can also be specified in order to provide non-project specific funtionality such as a org.eclipse.team.core.ProjectSetCapability.

The value of the class attribute must represent a subclass of org.eclipse.team.core.RepositoryProvider.

The provided implementation of RepositoryProvider provides helper methods and common code for mapping and unmapping providers to projects. The optional RepositoryProviderType provides project set import and export through a ProjectSetCapability.
