Install Page is Missing

I am admittedly a total noob, but I have tried downloading the egit installation packages in any provided links on 2 different computers, and every time I go to the installation download page, it gives me a 404 file missing and/or tells me that it should be in the options in the eclipse installation natively (it's not). Am I really the only one having this problem? I don't know where else to post this.

Just quit working

I am at my wits end trying to get this to work. It has aways thrown a java error but still worked until suddenly today, now it just dies. So, I just went and downloaded the latest eclipse PDT from zend, added the new marketplace to install Egit, select all options and I get an error that there is a missing requirement for mylyn. Not sure why this has to be so difficult to get running on my enviro. It would appear others use and I don't read any issues. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Error:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: EGit Mylyn 2.1.0.201209190230-r (org.eclipse.egit.mylyn.feature.group 2.1.0.201209190230-r)
Missing requirement: EGit Mylyn 2.1.0.201209190230-r (org.eclipse.egit.mylyn.feature.group 2.1.0.201209190230-r) requires 'org.eclipse.mylyn.team_feature.feature.group 3.5.0' but it could not be found

Fresh reinstall

Can you do an uninstall and then a fresh install of EGit?

Updating through Marketplace

When I had a problem using Help -> Check for Updates with such-n-such missing feature group, instead I went to the Marketplace from inside Eclipse: Help -> Eclipse Marketplace. I searched for the missing requirement and hit the UPDATE button next to the product.

Problem with symbolic links in Eclipse

Submitted by soenke on

Hi,

first: thanks for the great tool! But I want to report a Bug.

I cloned an svn repository to an git repository with git svn clone. In this svn repository I have a lot of symbolic links. These symbolic links are symbolic links on the local filesystem after cloning. These symbolic links are not a problem for the normal git console. If you type:

git status

you will get the message: "nothing to commit (working directory clean)"

But if you go into eclipse and click "commit" you get a list with hundreds of symbolic links. The "status" column tells you for everey symbolic link: "Rem., not staged".

If you commit the selected symbolic links and click commit again, egit wants to add all files of the project again to the repository. It is a very bad idea to do a commit of these unchanged symbolic links.

At the moment I click on "deselect all" and select my changed files but this is very annoying ;).

Best think would be: Ignoring the symlinks. You cannot change the symlinks with eclipse so you do not have to commit them to git. Maybe it could be a checked checkbox in the commit window.

Thanks

Ready to use

While it still has a 0.x version number is ready for use. It provides access to most git functionality in the "Eclipse way", nicely integrated.

There are still some rough edges, but starting with 0.11.x we are using it in our development team for the every day jobs without problems. And it is getting better with every version. Keep up the good work!

I only miss some more integration with Gerrit. Although Gerrit and git are two different things, eGit provides some integration with Gerrit and I would love to see more.
