  <p>Sometimes eclipse shows the branch in the package view like: <code>foo [foo master]</code>.</p>
  
  <p>My eclipse project is a gradle/java project that was created before doing a: <code>git init</code> and does not show the branch in the package view.</p>
  
  <p>Also, nothing is shown in the git repositories view.</p>
  
  <p>How do I get eclipse to show me the branch in the package view?</p>
