    Right click on a project and go to Team. Does it have the usual Git stuff, or does it allow you to "share" the project? If it says "share", then just set it up again.

    @Jeremy: I tried this already - the usual git stuff is missing there, that's exactly the problem. Furthermore, using "share" doesn't allow me to use the repository that already exists in the project folder (using gitk on that folder works perfectly fine...). Using "share", i could clone that repo, but i don't want to clone it, i want to use it from within Eclipse.

    Are you able to click on the checkbox that says "User or create Repository..." and select it?

    @Jeremy: thanks a lot, now it works. I had to set the local repositories up again before using "Team -> Share... -> Use Repository". After adding them to the Git Repositores view, eclipse allowed me to "activate" them as you described.

  • I have identified some generic steps to reproduce this (not only after Eclipse upgrades) and opened a bug report. Feel free to upvote it to help it get prioritised.
