I have some projects in a workspace that were imported from SVN using Subclipse. Now I'm opening this workspace with a new version of Eclipse (with Subclipse) and the "Team" context menu only contains "Apply patch".

Is there a way of getting subclipse working with these projects without having remove them from the workspace, and do a new import from SVN?

Maybe you do not have disconnected your projects before uninstalling the previous SVN Team Provider.
So all projects are still connected to the removed older version of the plug-in.
In that case Team Services does not show "Share Project" menu item.

The only way to reconnect these projects would be to remove them from workspace (without content deletion) then re-import these projects into workspace: pure eclipse operation: no SVN re-import needed.
