title: pydev and the src directory vs. scm
body: <p>I'm trying to transition to eclipse+pydev but am having a problem importing projects under scm. My old projects (and also projects on github) don't have the "src" parent directory that pydev seems to really like.</p>
  
  <p>If I use egit or subclipse to import/check out the project, the pydev environment is incomplete. If I externally check out the source and move it into place, I don't seem to be able to tell eclipse it's SCM'd.</p>
  
  <p>I would think this is a FAQ, but I can't figure it out. What is the best practice to use SCM'd projects under eclipse that aren't SCM'd as <em>eclipse</em> projects.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks. Kent</p>
