Use Jira Mylyn connector with Eclipse 2020-03? - eclipse

I was able to install the connector from http://update.atlassian.com/atlassian-eclipse-plugin/rest/e3.7 as suggested in:
How to use Eclipse Neon's Mylyn with Jira since connector was discontinued
How To Install Atlassian Connector On Eclipse Photon 4.8.x Version
Yet when I try to add a new repository it doesn't show Jira in there.
Is there a way to still make it work, maybe by downgrading mylyn?

There appears to be a fork here:
https://github.com/rastaman/jira-mylyn-connector
Context
This is a fork of the probably discontinued Atlassian IDE
Connector for Eclipse which work on Eclipse 4.8. It has been tested
with MacOS and Linux and as Java code it should work everywhere.
Target JIRA platforms
The connector has been lightly tested with JIRA
6.3.1 on-premise and Atlassian Cloud.
With a single release in 2018 labelled:
eclipse-connector-3.2.5.201808261123.zip
I've not tried it yet as my setup using the details on this answer to get the last release from Atlassian, and Eclipse 2020-03 (4.15.0), was working with JIRA on premises.
However we've recently migrated to JIRA Cloud and although it connects I now get this error trying to synchronise task lists:
org.codehaus.jettison.json.jsonexception jsonobject["name"] not found
I assume this is some mismatch between fields in the connector and Jira Cloud so I'll report back here once I've had time to try the forked connector.

I forked the Atlassian connector as well and updated it to work with the current Eclipse.
I just made some minor changes so that basic Jira Cloud support now works

Subversive Connectors not available

Recently i wanted to setup a new Eclipse C++ build environment with Photon etc. So i needed to install Subversive (4.0.5) and the corresponding connectors. But the connector installation failed (he won't even find any, after the installation of subversive and the restart). Is it possible, that Polarion discontinued the SVN Connector Repository because it is simply a blank site (this should be the update site of the SVN connector: http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/6.0/update-site/). Hope someone knows a solution.
As of today when I re-tested the site is back up and running again.
Someone have the files? We only need the connectors:
Subversive-connectors-6.0.4.I20161211-1700.zip
Subversive-connectors-allplatforms-6.0.4.I20161211-1700.zip

How to use Eclipse Neon's Mylyn with Jira since connector was discontinued

After a terrible decision by Atlassian to discontinue the Eclipse Connector for Jira, it seems to me like there is no way to use Mylyn in Eclipse Neon to integrate with Jira. Is it just me? Are there any workarounds?
I tried installing Tasktop Dev Pro but it failed complaining about a jar not found in the Update Site. Besides, it doesn't seem like a proper solution since it brings a lot more than we need
It definitively works with Eclipse Oxygen (still), using the Updatesite from atlassian, which is also mentioned on the Bitbucket OpenSource project. Please note, the help page, which is also hosted there, offers a download link to use the updatesite offline. Since the actual data there is in fact hosted by atlassian, let's just hope they don't drop support for hosting those files.
Update Site URL: http://update.atlassian.com/atlassian-eclipse-plugin/rest/e3.7
I got the Version: 3.2.5.v20150427
As far as I can see, the support is still fully functional, including the ability to create new tickets, add comments and manage ticket lifecycle
PS: I needed to configure the proxy settings accordingly (Jira is hosted in-house here, so we need an exception rule for the proxy used for internet connection by default).
I have not fought with Neon yet, but in Mars which is also not officially supported, I was able to get Jira partly working using this install URL:
Atlassian Connector for Eclipse 3.7 and later - http://update.atlassian.com/atlassian-eclipse-plugin/rest/e3.7
It allows me to see my task list, select Jiras and it will remember working sets for each Jira I select, but one important feature to me I cannot get to work is on the Team Synchronizing perspective I CANNOT add changed files to a change set tied to the Jira like I can in Luna.
I can see incoming changes by jira tied change sets, but not create out going jira tied change sets.
I have broken my Mars install many times trying to update Mylyn but if I take the 3.20 version it foo-bars my install.

How to uninstall a Mylyn connector not working

I recently updated my Eclipse to Juno release.
I had a working Mylyn Connector for Bitbucket installed and it worked in Helios.
After the upgrade the Bitbucket repository is gone and when I try to add a new repository for Bitbucket no connector is available.
Trying to install the connector from Bitbucket, Eclipse tells me it is already installed.
When viewing the all installed software I see Mylyn Bitbucket Connector but the Uninstall button is disabled.
As far as I know it is not the preferred solution to remove files from plugins/ or features/ directory.
How can I uninstall this Mylyn Connector?
I'm running 32-bit Eclipse Java EE on Win7
This is no longer an issue.
I have huge inconsistencies in my Juno installation (continuing) but after a one on one update of updates I got it working again.

Redmine Eclipse-Mylyn Plugin cannot modify tasks

I've installed mylyn connectors for redmine and eclipse. After I executed gem install -v=2.3.5 rails and updated my RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb the plugin worked and i can connect to the repository.
I can also read tasks from the repo but I'm not able to modify them from eclipse ide. if i want to submit i cant authenticate... did I miss something? it seems, that i'm somehow stuck in a read-only mode?
I'm currently using on client side:
Eclipse/Mylyn 3.6.2
Mylyn Connector: Redmine 0.3.4.201109150625
and on server side:
Redmine 1.2.1.stable (MySQL)
My mistake was that I also checked API Key in the eclipse taskrepository setup.

How can I manually install SVN connectors in Eclipse

I've been using early versions of the new Eclipse (3.7 and 4.0) and they have been quite stable, however I am missing SVN support.
Using the prescribed (for the stable version 3.6) method of using the eclipse update site, I cannot install a connector because the available versions are not supported. I have read of other users successfully using the connectors after installing them manually, however I cannot find any description of how to do this.
Can anyone help?
This is the new link for downloading SVN Connector manually.

Did you try the http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/ site, listed on the Polarion Subversive site?
Update: A -1 given to this answer made me realize that the update site URLs are changed. The current list of update sites is the following:
http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/builds/ – Subversive Connector Archives for Subversive 0.
http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/3.0/builds/ – Subversive Connector Archives for Subversive 1.0/1.1
Additionally, if the update site urls have changed again, consult the Polarion site.
