CDT uses PDE basebuilder based builds which are currently built from CVS where
each CDT plugin is checked out at plugin granularity from CVS.

I've built CDT releases from a local git clones (where each git repo is one CDT
plugin) successfully using an simple but stupid git IFetchFactory (bug 289838).
How would we do this if we had all of CDT in one git repository?


Doug says:
"thanks to tips from Andrew Niefer, I have figured out how to do PDE build from
already checked out source. At the very least, I'll do that for the Hudson
builds. But when we do decide to go to git, we should have no problems setting
up the builds"

Could you document here / on the wiki how to do this?
