Git is used only for the synchronization aspect, which is separate from version control. Other version control systems can be used with synchronized projects, but only Git can be used for synchronized projects currently.
Your second question is an interesting one. In theory I don’t see why it wouldn’t be possible to create a normal C/C++ project on a mapped drive, but modify the toolchain to run the build remotely. I’ll have a play around with this to see if it can be configured currently.

So 2 follow up questions to that, We currently are using clearcase for version control, is that supported as well as git? Also we currently have access to the file system through a mapped drive so file manipulation isn't an issue, is it possible to continue using the projects we have but update the tool chain to perform the builds remotely or will I still need to use a sync project still?

Hi Graham,
RDT has been replaced by synchronized projects. You just need git installed on the remote machine (most come preinstalled these days), and it should work fine from a Windows client. You can get started by switching to the C/C++ perspective, then right clicking in the project explorer view. You should see a context menu with options to create a synchronized project.
The online documentation [1] is most up-to-date.
Regards,
Greg

Hi all, I'm a new potential user to ptp and would like to try leveraging it to allow development on a windows machine but to remote build on a unix system. From looking around it seems like RDT might help with that, the trouble is the systems are on an isolated network so I need to locate all the necessary components manually and transfer them over. We are running with eclipse mars currently, I found the download for PTP 9.0 but I'm having some trouble location the RDT server download that go along with the PTP version. Can someone point me in the right direction?
