I am using Eclipse Mars for a Java EE project that currently uses CVS. I am in the process of migrating the source code along with its version history to Git.

When this is achieved, I want to remove any references to CVS from the project and continue with Git.

In the Project Properties dialog Tree View I can see CVS (under Resources and Builder and above Deployment Assembly). I want this CVS item to disappear.

In a separate project I work on that uses Git I can see a Git item in the Tree View of the Project Properties dialog. I would like that Git item to appear in the aforementioned project as well.

So, basically I want the project that has references to CVS to reference Git instead.

I don't see any simple way to do this and was wondering if a solution to this problem is available.

Once you have your git repo in place just delete all the project in your WS (presuming they're pointing to your CVS location). Then clone your new Git repo and run the 'Import Projects...' from the Team menu to get Git versions of the projects back into your WS.
