I want to see the output of the egit (eclipse plugin for git) when doing some operations like pulling, pushing in eclipse, just like the SVN plugin. Anyone knows how to do it?
I'm using Elcipse Kepler which already contains egit.
Thanks in advance.
You can install additional tool from opensource contribution

Look at post http://www.codeaffine.com/2014/07/09/gonsole-weeks-a-git-console-for-eclipse/
The simple answer is that this is not yet implemented in EGit, see bug 349551.

I want to know how the eclipse developers use git ? Do they use the command line or do they use EGit plugin GUI ? If EGit GUI is used, then how do they manage it, since eclipse has one repository per plugin structure.
Take a look at the getting started here, then navigate through to answer your question.
I am new to GIT and I have been looking for a GIT plugin for Eclipse.
I came across this on SO .
How stable is the git plugin for eclipse? and also http://www.quora.com/Whats-the-best-Eclipse-plugin-to-manage-git
But these have worsened my confusion over using EGIT or Aptana.
I just want to know
1)Why should one use EGIT and why should one use Aptana.
2)What are the differences in performance and stability in both ?
3) Which one is better right now with their latest releases?
Kindly, please answer these questions. Thanks you.
It looks like aptana and egit are different, aptana is a whole ide based on eclipse with a custom git plugin, and egit is a git plugin for eclipse.
I'm using egit with git console and so far, it fit my needs :)
You should start using one, then if you're not happy with it, try another one.
The git command line is really great, because it does exactly what you tell it to do. At first it's not really user friendly but it's learning efficient and you know what you do. sometimes plugin do other things that are not expected (not in the wrong way but it can cause problems)
I have created a repository in https://github.com. And installed eclipse Kepler as the editor. I want to commit my local file to this remote repository. How to achieve this?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT
I followed your links and got the following error. Can you assist further please?
I've just done this for the first time myself and found these two tutorials very helpful. They both refer to EGit which I believe comes bundled with Kepler, I certainly didn't have to install it myself.

I just installed the EGit plugin for Eclipse, restarted Eclipse and it shows well in the Installed Software list but... I can't find any added menus or access to its features?
What am I missing?
To prove that I am not hallucinating here is a screenshot of the list:
But there is no hint or clue in any of the menus, menu items, perspectives or views that it's there...
No sign in menus:
No sign in projects:
No sign in perspectives:
Do I need to do some additional configuration somewhere to enable it?
Mystery solved.
It turns out that I mistakenly installed Eclipse JGit instead of Eclipse EGit. Once I selected the EGit package instead:
Things went fine:
One letter difference... (E instead of J)
You just installed JGit, and forgot EGit. JGit is just the Git implementation, but doesn't contain any UI contributions. These are all in the EGit plugin (which should also be available in the Update Site).
is there no new perspective available? Is there no "new -> project from git repository" available?
Usually eclipse plugins work if they're listed.
Cheers
edit:
I just installed jGit as well. Here's what I found:
To see it go to: Window -> open Perspective -> other
Also on a rightclick on my projects (as in cvs & svn plugins) -> team I find Git support as well.
Cheers again
edit 2: No "new project from git" here as well.
Note that the Eclipse Classic package in Kepler (4.3 M6, March 2013) now includes Egit directly (see all the packages here).
See the announcement from Martin Oberhuber
With Kepler M6, we've added egit and Marketplace Client to the Eclipse Classic package, which is still the most popular of all Eclipse packages. The request adding git to all packages has been open for long, and after driving it with the Eclipse PMC Markus Knauer has helped me make it happen.
even though there was no error when installing Subclipse in Eclipse. I won't see the SVN perspective at all?
I have tried with "Eclipse Classic 3.5.1" and with "Eclipse for PHP Developers".
After downloading and unzipping the packages I used Eclipse's "Install Software" mechanism to install Subclipse 1.6.x. I followed the steps described here: http://www3.math.tu-berlin.de/jreality/mediawiki/index.php/Subclipse_installation_in_eclipse_galileo.
But after Eclipse re-starts I don't get any SVN Repository perspective? I have tried to un-install/re-install all the software components many times now. Finally after 3 hours of trying I am giving up. Does anyone have any hint what I am missing?
Thanks!

I had the same problem. I use Windows 7 64 bits OS. I clean read-only flag of eclipse folder in C:\Program Files (x86) and give full access right to all users on my PC. I reinstalled it from update site and it works.
This is a known bug with subclipse: http://subclipse.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=992
EDIT For anyone keeping track of this, it looks like Eclipse Helios SR1 may have fixed the issue. I haven't tested it myself yet, but by the sounds of the discussion at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=322929 it should now be working.
I just had this same issue with Ubuntu. It turned out to be permissions. Once I gave write permissions to everywhere in my eclipse installation and then reinstalled subclipse, its views and so forth appeared, just like magic.
I don't know what you are looking for. But after installing the Subclipse plugin, you should have a new entry in the File | New | Project dialog. Something along the lines of "Checkout project from SVN"
Then when you hit continue, you can enter your SVN repository details, check the branch you are interested in, etc. After checking out a project, you can right click on it and go to the "Team" submenu to get the features provided by Subclipse like check in code, diff, merge, etc.
I ran into the exact same problem too. I installed both Subclipse and GWT/GAE plugins and couldn't find any evidence of them after installation.
I'm on Windows 7 and had installed Eclipse 3.5 SR2 into C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5. I also put my workspace in C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5\workspace. When I was checking things I noticed there was a lock icon on the C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5\workspace.
I reinstalled Eclipse to C:\dev\eclipse and the workspace to C:\dev\eclipse\workspace. After that the installation of the plugins went without a hitch and I could see the SVN Repository Exploring perspective (no idea why some of the other posters claim this perspective doesn't exist). I suspect it was some sort of permissions problem on the directories.
Another way to check and see if the whole thing was installed correctly is to go to the SVN Repositories view. Go to Window -> Show View -> Other, and then search for SVN. If you see a bunch of SVN views like "Repositories," Subclipse is installed.
I had this problem due to some kind of incompatibility between Subclipse and Android ADT plugins. One answer suggested yoxos which gives you all your eclipse plugins from one central repository.
Had the same problem. I work on Linux, and when I installed eclipse in /usr/local/eclipse, Subclipse did not show up. The solution was to install Eclipse locally, e.g. in /home/user/eclipse. Now Subclipse (and other plugins too) worked!
Edit: guess it could be the same on Windows.
I think this is due to some incompatibilities between the packages of subclipse and the gwt 2.x plugin and android... as this started happen to me after I upgrade to v 2.0 of gwt back in the day.
The same issue repeats both on Mac and Windows... and it seems no fix has been released.
Now the only way I've found to move on with my work is to remove subclipse and install the latest subversive plugin instead.
http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/
I know this ain't subclipse but it works very similar and no issues with gwt nor android plugins.
it worked for me and so I hope it works for you in the mean time.
cheers,
G.
