Flex Builder and multiple and potentially duplicated projects in the same workspace?

Is it possible to have two projects with the same name in flex builder?

Here is the script

~ / projects / myprojectdev / ProjectName

~ / projects / myprojectstable / ProjectName

myprojectdev

and

myprojectstable

are more or less the same tree structure and duplicates of the same code base.

I am using git to manage them as separate repositories. I can do some things in the myprojectdev folder and then, when I'm satisfied, sometimes merge the changes into the myprojectstable folder . But I want to keep myprojectstable code in my workspace in Flex Builder so I can run it and sometimes compare the code between dev and stable. I can also open different versions of the same project codebase and compare them in production. The problem is that the " ProjectName " is the same in both folders . And so I cannot import them into the Flex Builder workspace. I get a warning

A project with the same name already exists in your workspace. Rename or delete an existing project.

But I don't want to rename the project or mess with its folder structure. What am I doing? Should I store them in different folders? eg.

~ / projects / myprojectdev / ProjectNameDev

~ / projects / myprojectstable / ProjectNameStable

You can rename the project (in eclipse / flex builder) without actually renaming the folder it is in. Edit the file .project

in ProjectNameDev and ProjectNameDev to give the projects different names. You may need to restart eclipse to find out how this new name is.
