-------------------------------------------

" I find it very difficult to clone and import a project correctly into JBDS"

Do you mean *any* kind of project, or a *maven* project ? 
if it is already an eclipse project it just works. The issue is if the project is not something egit knows about it wont know how to import it. This is why we created easymport that are being contributed to eclipse platform to allow wizards like egit import to detect and automaically configure/open projects based on their content even for things they might not know about yet.

"having the appropriate facets configured, if it has a maven pom.xml, correctly setting the build path, where it is easily deployable to a localhost EAP instance"

can you be a bit more specific what you mean here ? today if your project is a pom.xml and you get it imported all this should all be there and I believe we cannot really get any better/closer at this. With JBDS the server is there by default and you can drag it to the server and it will "just work". What parts are missing here in your opinon ? what kind of projects are you maybe thinking on that is *not* maven projects ?

> As a Java EE developer, in some cases using Git for the first time (or only familiar with command line git), I find it very difficult to clone and import a project correctly into JBDS, having the appropriate facets configured, if it has a maven pom.xml, correctly setting the build path, where it is easily deployable to a localhost EAP instance.  
> The mission here is to make the Git experience much more user friendly.
