[FIXED] How to add an existing GitHub repository into PHP project in Eclipse?

Issue

I worked with class mates on a project to build a static website using CSS and HTML. Then we used visual studios and our work was synchronized with GitHub. Now we are asked to continue our work adding PHP files using Eclipse IDE. My question is how can I add the existing repo on eclipse and share it with my friends?

Solution

You would add it to the list of Git Repositories that Eclipse knows of, and then import the interesting part (or whole) of the working directory as a project. Check the online User Guide: https://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide#Starting_from_existing_Git_Repositories
