installing the MOTODEV core plugins into eclipse "git command" s

Question

I am going through the MOTODEV Core plugins installation here

I get to the step: - "Use the git clone command to download the MOTODEV Core Plugins source repository into a working copy"

And this is where I get stuck. Where do I input this "git clone" command into Eclipse?

Answer 1

You could very easily do the clone from the command line as follows:

git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/tools/motodev.git

and then import the sources from the filesystem into eclipse -- it should pick up your project structure automatically.

Answer 2

Install "windows git" (http://msysgit.github.com/)

then type that git clone into a command line.

It keeps stopping between 43% and 61% for me though...damned aggravating because git clone doesn't have a continue command (I googled for a while for it and apparently it was a 2009 Google Summer of Code project but was never done)=:
