I have created a Rails project on Aptana Studio 3 and now I want to put it in a repository on Github. I red How to set up Git with Aptana Studio 3? but the solution given in it is the other way. So, my question is how to export my project (for first time) in my empty Github repository ?
Thank you
Simply follow github's tutorial here https://help.github.com/articles/adding-an-existing-project-to-github-using-the-command-line/
It work for any project
Since Aptana Studio 3 is based on Eclipse, and includes EGit, you can follow the EGit GitHub tutorial to push your local repo to your new empty GitHub repo.
As long as you
create a local Git repo and did one local commit,
configure your remote repo credentials (for instance your GitHub SSH key)
you will be able to specify "Add all branches spec" to your push configuration.
If you are using HTTPS (or even SSH) you need a recent Git For Windows (2.16.1).
Not the 1.9.4 you show.
That is because because GitHub just disabled TLSV1 a few days ago.

I am trying to add repository WSIG to Eclipse but i get this error unable to load default SVN client.
link WSIG repository in github
Yes as explained above you'll need a Eclipse Plugin to clone the git repository.
Or Install latest eclipse from here and use the already installed plugin.
But as it is mentioned it a GIT repo not SVN thus SVN plugin will not work.
First of all the repository you're trying to clone (in git terms) or checkout (in SVN) is a GIT repository. That means, it uses Git as its version control system.
Thus, you cannot use SVN plugin for that, for basic understanding you can go through here.
Also on github there are ample of ways to get hands-on on Git , which I'll recommend before you actually start working using Git.
Here is the link : https://try.github.io/
Now, for your question you have to do as below for importing in eclipse :
First see , whether you have EGit plugin already installed in your eclipse if not please get this installed, as :
Once thats setup, then Goto --> Import -> Git --> Projects from Git
Then Clone URI
Then add your project link which you see on git hub as :
now paste the URL here. Since we selected http while copying from Github then choose same here as below :
Now feed your user credential and you are all set.
If you still face any difficulty within above steps, there is good documentation with images here as well : https://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseGit/article.html#github
Hope this helps.
I'm trying to clone a repository from GitHub to PyCharm, and so I looked up how to do that. I looked at this website, and it told me to go to
Choose VCS | Checkout from Version Control | GitHub on the main menu. PyCharm establishes connection with GitHub using the login and password you registered. Upon establishing connection, the Select Git Hub Repository to Clone dialog box opens.
From the Repository drop-down list, select the source repository to clone the data from.
But, when I go to VCS | Checkout from Version Control, there is no GitHub, only these options:
So I looked at this answer to this question, which was similar but on Intellij (I hope PyCharm and Intellij work similarly), and the answer was to
Go to File > Settings > Plugins and search for GitHub and Git Integration then install those. A restart might be required in order to apply the changes.
(answer was written by Enzokie). So I went there and those were both installed. What is wrong and why can't I clone a repository from GitHub?
GitHub is a web-based hosting service for version control using Git.
I copied that from their webpage.
The version control system you want to use is Git. And you will connect to GitHub, (which also uses Git), to clone the project you want.
So, select the Git option, enter the project URL and voila!
Another version control web-hosting service who also uses Git (but also Mercurial), is Bit-Bucket.
This Wikipedia page explains what Git is.
I am new to eclipse, and I can't figure otu how to set up egit properly to work with github. I made a new local repository, and I've commited some changes, but now I want to get all this code onto github. What should I do? I can't find a solution in the eclipse wiki. I have a github account.
Here is a nice demo that show you step by step video
What you want to do is pulling up repository in eclipse from window -> show view -> other (then find the repository)
After you did that you go to master branch and configure remote then add your SSH key under your github account. Go to your eclipse git destination from remote enter your git account URL, username, password, repository path. All you need to do after that just hit the push.
I have created a gitlab repository and followed the installation instruction by the letter and it was successful (i think... i can browse the repository online) and now I want to connect the egit plugin from eclipse to this remote repository.
I was using SVN for quite some time and now we need to switch to git and I am confused. egit only gives me the option to create a local repository but I'm a bit lost on how to push/fetch code to my online repository.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks!
With Gitlab (working with ssh urls), that means you have to register your public and private ssh key in Egit first before being able to clone it.
See EGit ssh configuration
Then you can clone it.
And yes, you need to clone the full repo locally to work on it, that is the difference between a:
CVCS (Centralized Version Control System) like SVN
DVCS: Distributed Version Control System.
See "Sell me Distributed revision control" and "Describe your workflow of using version control (VCS or DVCS)" for more.
First you need to clone the remote repository using git clone <repository>, then you can import it to eclipse using egit
Or
You can use the clone functionality provided by EGit to clone the remote repo to local system
I have a computer running Ubuntu Server. On this computer I have a user named mattgit.
I have another computer running Windows 7. I develop Java applications in Eclipse on this computer.
On my server, I have run "git init --shared --bare" to create a central repository for an Eclipse project. I've done this once for each project in my Eclipse workspace, each in a separate folder.
I want each project in my Eclipse workspace on my Win7 machine to act as a/be a/whatever the terminology is git repository. I want to be able to then push these files back to the central repository on my server. How do I do this?
I've tried cloning the (initially empty) central repository to my Win7 machine to a folder in my Eclipse workspace and then creating a project in there, but Eclipse refuses to create it because it says the directory isn't empty.
I've also tried creating the project using Eclipse in my workspace, then cloning the repository into that folder, but apparently I'm not allowed to do that either.
I've tried using SmartGit and the Git binary and I'm just getting more and more confused.
EDIT: Please assume I know absolutely nothing about what I need to do. I need step-by-step instructions.
You will need three things:
a Git listener service able to listen to your git command (and you don't need gitolite at all here: it is an authorization layer).
See GitStack for Windows (there is a free version)
a git Eclipse plugin including in your Eclipse in order to not switch context when you want to do a Git operation: make sure EGit is installed in your Eclipse.
some instructions importing your existing Eclipse project into a local git repo and to declare your Windows GitStack repo as a remote, in order to push to it.
Create a local repo and import your Eclipse project into it.
Add your remote and push to it.
The instructions of Egit on GitHub are quite complete.
The Vogella's tutorial on Egit is also nicely done.
The simpler way to do that is to create your new project within Eclipse, then right click on the project and go to Team > Share menu.
This interface will guide you to create a new local repository containing your new Eclipse project.
Once your project is managed on a local git repository, Eclipse will give you other context menu entries to manipulate the project on Git. So you will be able to push your commits on your remote repository (the one you created on your server).
