Re: [egit] Git repository with multiple eclipse projects ?

I am investigating whether it is possible at all to have several
eclipse projects in a single git repo, and have those projects
correctly seen as managed by git.

As Robin said, it should work.  EGit and JGit both use this layout.
 

When importing a git repo into eclipse, we get a list of projects to
import, but that list is empty.  What is expected by egit to get this
list filled ?

There should be .project files in the repository.  I think we scan
the entire checkout tree for .project files, but maybe we are doing
something stupid and only looking at the top level directory of
the checkout.

It also does not look like it would be possible to use the "share"
functionnality to setup such a repository from multiple projects (or
from a project set), right ?

Nope, I don't think this is supported right now.  You need to
initialize the git repository by hand in the higher level directory
that holds the projects.
