All:

Newbie to this list. I've been using eGit in Eclipse for a while now  
and I've been updating it manually. Most recently I've installed a new  
version of Eclipse (3.4 Ganymede) and I've imported the org.spearce.*  
projects into the new version and exported the projects to the Eclipse  
plugins directory. All looks normal to here and the products are where  
they should be. I quit and restart Eclipse.

When I access Team > Share Project on any of my projects the only  
option available is CVS. For some reason Git does not show up as an  
option. Since I have never had any problems installing egit before I  
have tried everything I know of to troubleshoot. Does anyone here have  
any ideas why Git is not showing up as an option for sharing in  
Ganymede?

Try put those jars in $ECLIPSE_ROOT/dropins.  IIUC, they overhauled
the whole plugin provisioning system in Ganymede - not sure for better
or for worse though. :-)

Cheers.
