Synchronizing has some regressions in Eclipse 3.2. Why?
In 3.2, we introduced the concept of a model-based synchronization. This type of synchronization allows model providers (e.g. Java) to participate in the display of elements in the Synchronize view. This amounted to a total rewrite and we just didn’t have the time or resources to implement the full funtionality that was available in the old-style synchronization. If you are missing funtionality that you require or just prefer the look and feel of the old view, you can disable the model-based sync by going to the Team>CVS>Synchronize/Compare preference page and unchecking “Allow models to participate in Synchronizations”. You can also change the Update option on the Team>CVS>Update/Merge prefernece page to “Never preview and use CVS text markup” as the other options make use of the model-based synchronization.
