Maven Integration

According to the Maven Eclipse Plugin page, the path to the local maven repository can be added to an eclipse workspace with

 mvn -Declipse.workspace=<path-to-eclipse-workspace> eclipse:add-maven-repo

It's not quite clear to me what this does. Apparently, from then on, eclipse-specific project files can be generated with

 mvn eclipse:eclipse

and then the project can be imported into the workspace.
