Description
Scenario:
1) User A checks out a maven project from SVN using "Checkout as Maven Project". All modules are now listed as seperate projects in Eclipse
2) User B creates a new module in the project, and checks it into SVN
3) User A updates project
4) New module does not show up as a seperate project.
5) User A cries.
A similar issue occurs if a module is renamed or removed - and is a bit more tricky
But just supporting new projects would be great.
I work around this by selecting the mother project and do Import -> Maven. I then select the same name template and most modules should be grayed out because of name conflicts. I then tick the one (new) module and import it.
The best would be for this to be done automatically or semi-automatically.. "New module detected.. do you want to import it..?" (could pop up with the wizard that remembers the selection of workset and name template etc. from the original import)
