We'd like to capture some common CVS workflows used by the Eclipse Project and spell out the git/EGit equivalent.

The first step is to clone the one or more repos you need to work on. You want to clone the repo to a location outside your workspace. Then use the EGit Import Projects option to import the projects.

Refer to the EGit/User Guide for instructions and pictures.
