I feel it would be advantageous to add a 'From Source Control' option within the 'New Project' creation process. Currently, creating a new project from a repository is obfuscated within the CVS/SVN menus.
For this purpose there is "Import..." action.
Sorry for my previous comment. If you have new project then you can use import action that will add all project sources into desired repository. If you want to get the project from the repository then use "Checkout" wizard. After successful connection to repository and checking required sources out, NetBeans will examine these sources and it will: 1. show "Open Project" dialog - NetBeans' project structure has been found 2. show "Create Project from existing sources" - no NetBeans' project structure has been found in checked out sources.
Reassigning to "versioncontrol"...
