#1269 .pydevproject file changes depending on where you checkout

[Salim Fadhley]

The .pydevproject file contains file-paths to indicate the components of the project. Currently these paths appear to be given relative to the eclipse workspace rather than relative to the project's main directory. This may seem inconsequential, however consider the case where one user wishes to check out multiple versions of the same project. Each checkout instance will produce a slightly different version of the .pydevproject. Were any of these to be committed it would create a nuisance because what would be valid for one project would be invalid for another.

I suggest that this feature should be changed so that the paths in the ,pydevproject file should be made relative to the project directory it'self. That way it would not matter where the project was checked-out - the pydevproject file will be identical.

This may seem like a trivial request, however consider my own use-case. We have a multi-developer python project. We have no means of enforcing which directory a user will check out their work into. Any time somebody commits this file by mistake they potentially break it for all the other users.
