Importing Github Library and Only Work With Library

To make it clear, I'm aware on how to import a library from github to my eclipse workspace and that isn't the problem.

I'm trying to import https://github.com/MartinvanZ/Inscription. If one were to look at the library, you'd see that the actual library isn't in the root but in a seperate folder.

Example:

Git Library
    library(folder)
    sample(folder)
    random files (licence, readme, etc)

I just want to import the library folder as a android project and then modify it and when I push it to the repo, it just gets pushed to the library folder.

How do I do this? If not possible, what can I do similar to what I want?

I believe the problem here is that the library in question does not contain the files required to be imported directly as an Eclipse project. Specifically, it is missing .project and .classpath files. To get this project into Eclipse, you'll have to create a new project. Select File -> New -> Android Project and the pick the option that says "Create project from existing source."

This should create the required .project and .classpath files, without harming the .git directory.
