Re: [Gitclipse-devel] javagit plug-in

[Patrick W. <pat...@ny...>]

This is made a little difficult because the javagit plug-in needs to
hardcode the jar filename in its manifest.  What it does is include the jar
in the packaged plug-in and add it to its own classpath.  I don't think
there's any way for us to make the plug-in dymanic.  We'll need to modify
the plug-in as versions and javagit filenames change.

All we can do is point the build script to the filename to copy it into the
plug-in project.  Unless of course we rename the published javagit jar file
to something static, devoid of version number.
