Defining a provider

The org.eclipse.team.core.repository extension point is used to add a repository definition. Here is the markup for the CVS client.

<extension
    point="org.eclipse.team.core.repository">
      <repository
            class="org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.CVSTeamProvider"
            id="org.eclipse.team.cvs.core.cvsprovider">
      </repository>
</extension>

This registers your team provider with the team support plug-in and assigns an id that should be used when your provider is associated with a project. The specified class for the repository must extend RepositoryProvider.
