Projects

Projects on CodeCollaborate can be managed through the CodeCollaborate Projects view - instructions on how to access it can be found [here](Plugin Setup#showing-the-codecollaborate-projects-view)

Subscribing

Subscribing to a project means that your local copy will be kept up to date with the copy of the project on the server, as long as you stay connected to the CodeCollaborate server. This means that any time anyone else who is also subscribed to the project makes a change to it, you will also get that change.
Note that subscribing to a project will overwrite all of your local changes to it with the copy that is on the server.

Adding a project

To add a project to CodeCollaborate, use the plus button in the projects list area of the Projects View. In the add menu, you can either type in the full project name or you can simply select it from the drop down on the right. You can only add a project to CodeCollaborate that is already in your Eclipse Workspace.

Deleting a project

Similar to adding, a project can be removed by using the minus button in the projects list area of the Projects View. Just select the project that you want to delete from the server and then press the minus button. Note that you must be the owner of the project to delete it.

Permissions

Project permissions are as follows:

• Read: read-only access, can subscribe to the project and view code updates in real time, but cannot edit
• Write: can edit, add, and remove files from the codebase, plus everything allowed by all permissions listed above
• Admin: can add and remove users to the project as readers and writers, plus everything allowed by all permissions listed above
• Owner (not assignable): can add Admin to the project, plus everything allowed by all permissions listed above

Adding and Removing users from a project

To add or remove users from a project, you must first be subscribed it. In the projects view, select the project that you want to manage the users for. You should be able to see the list of users for the project in the Users pane to the right of the project selection.
From here, use the plus button to the right of the Users pane to add a user. The allowed permissions can be found above
You can also remove a user from this list by selecting their username in the Users pane and then pressing the minus button to the right of the Users pane.

Removing yourself from a project

As long as you are not the owner of a project, you can remove yourself from a project the same way you would remove any other user. Simply select your username in the users list on a project and then use the minus button to remove yourself from the project.
