Description pzgyuanf 2012-03-03 03:37:43 UTC
Netbeans currently can disconnect from the remote repository, but no way to clean up the metadata, the .git folders. So it is difficult or impossible to migrate the source to another repository, say, originally the code was on code.google, but I want to host on GitHub.

Although it might useful to keep it for later reconnect, but supply the option to clean up the metadata information would help the above case.

(BTW., Eclipse has this option)

Thanks
