Sharing a workspace for many developers in Eclipse

Question

How can I share a workspace in Eclipse (Helios or Indigo) so that many developers are able to work in one project?

I know about SVN but I don\'t want to use that.

I admit, this question is pretty old. I still think, it’s worth answering, because I think you are not alone with your question.

As others already mentioned, you need to distinguish between sharing the workspace and sharing the source code in this workspace.

If you want to share your source code, you should use a version control system like Git. GitHub or Bitbucket offer easy solutions for this task.

If you want to share your workspace settings, you can have a look at http://profiles.yatta.de. With this tool, you can share your workspace settings, and others can install a copy of your workspace on their computer.
