Get Maven project from svn to Eclipse
When you put a maven project under source control like SVN, you don’t have to check in the IDE’s project file. What you will do is check in the pom.xml and the source folder. That is enough for you to rebuild the project.
If you want to continue work on this project on your favorite IDE (like Eclipse) again, you can simply choose “File-import” and from the dialog box, select “Other – Check out Maven Project from scm” and the locate you source repository in the following wizard, and you are good to go. The Maven plugin will generate the project file for you according to pom file settings.
