Description

When I check out cTAKES and import it into Eclipse (4.3) most of the modules appear dirty. The reason for this is that Eclipse metadata files from the (.settings folder, .project file, etc) are maintained in SVN.

The situation could be fixed not maintaining the following files in SVN (these are automatically set up properly by m2e based on the pom.xml files:

• .project
• .settings/org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs
• .settings/org.eclipse.m2e.core.prefs

It should not be a problem to continue maintaining .settings/org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs in the SVN - actually, having this in can be quite useful and its contents are not regenerated from the pom.xml.
