Team Repository Provider

###### Identifier:

org.eclipse.team.core.repository

###### Since:

2.0

###### Description:

The Team plugin contains the notion of Repositories. The job of a repository is to provide support for sharing resources between Team members. Repositories are configured on a per-project basis. Only one repository can be mapped to a project at a time.

Repositories that extend this extension point can provide implementations for common repository specific rules for resource modifications, moving and deleting. See the following interfaces for more details `IFileModificationValidator` and `MoveDeleteHook`.

A Repository type can also be specified in order to provide non-project specific funtionality such as a `org.eclipse.team.core.ProjectSetCapability`.

Optionaly, a repository provider type can designate that it can import projects from second provider, in the case where the second provider's plugin is not available in the current install. This is provided as a means to support the migration from one provider implementation to another where the resuse of the same id for the two providers was not possible.
