Description viggonavarsete 2008-09-25 08:46:09 UTC 
We have our test data committed to a subversion repository, no code, only test data. When I want to check out the test
data I go to Versioning->Checkout, enter the URL to the repository and find my test data. When the test data are checked
out, Netbeans ask me if I want to create an IDE project from the checked-out sources.
1. If I answer yes, what kind of project do I pick? I can't find a proper project type for the data I checked out.
2. If I answer no, the data will be available on my file system, but I'm not able to synchronize them since I haven't
created a project for it, and hence not available in Netbeans (other from Favorites, but I can't synchronize from there).
Comment 1 viggonavarsete 2008-09-25 08:48:46 UTC 
It is actually possible to synchronize from Favorites, so I change this issue to a feature to be able to create a
Netbeans project that can contain test data.
Comment 2 Peter Pis 2008-09-25 09:38:29 UTC 
Reassigning to projects.
Comment 3 Milos Kleint 2008-09-25 09:55:35 UTC 
hardly ever going to happen.
I'm not sure what you need a project type for, it would boil down to creating a project for any random folder on the
filesystem.
Comment 4 viggonavarsete 2008-09-25 10:43:27 UTC 
I agree. Let's change status to won't fix
