I'm trying to get the EGit plugin and I'm about to pull my hair out. Okay, this is what's happening -- I go to the Install New Software page and I've added the EGit repo, but the window below doesn't show anything; it just says "pending". After a while I get an error saying it timed out.
I've tried unchecking everything one at a time on the "Available Software Sites" page but that doesn't work.
I've tried unchecking the "contact all update sites during install.." box but that doesn't work.
I've tried downloading it on the marketplace but when I try and open it I get the same issue, it just times out.
The internal web browser is working. I'm not working behind a proxy. I need some help. PLEASE!
In the Indigo Release there is the "Eclipse EGit", "Eclipse Mylyn to GitHub connector" and "JGit" in Indigo R2 release site. Do you get to that point or are you trying to load a site other than Indigo Release? The next step is to Calculate Requirements and Dependencies. If you downloaded something it is probably the GitHub plugin/Feature distrib. You should be able to copy those packages into the respective folder and restart Eclipse.
Your best bet is to install from the Eclipse release site and then go to Menu -> Window -> Open Perspective -> Other and you should see a GitHub Repository Explorer perspective.
Otherwise show us what site your trying to load from or explain the problem better.

I am using an Eclipse IDE for Java Developers version 2019-12 (4.14.0). As there were no JSP support, I went to Eclipse site and drag and drop the install button to my eclipse. It started the installation but even after hours it stuck around 80%.
I restarted the Eclipse and even my machine but as an when I click on the Marketplace, the dialog shown in the image comes up and stuck there. The cancel button also doesn't work.
Please help..
For JSPs, you actually want https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/eclipse-enterprise-java-developer-tools, but if you keep running into this issue, it sounds more like a problem with your network.
To rule out any issue with it being on the client, you can add https://download.eclipse.org/releases/latest into your Available Software Sites preference page, Check for Updates from the Help menu, and then try the directions at https://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_FAQ#How_do_I_install_WTP.3F. If everything else fails, the downloadable package at https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2020-12/r/eclipse-ide-enterprise-java-developers is an option (for the next week, after which 2021-03 will have been Released).
I just installed a new version of eclipse IDE(2020-12) and tried to install the plugins I had on the older version but had no success.
As shown in the picture, when I find the plugin in the Eclipse marketplace and click install, "install pending" shows up and nothing happens. I neither get any pop-ups that ask me to proceed with the installation nor see any progress at the bottom right of the eclipse window. For the older version(2019-06), I can install without any changes in preferences or some other sort of settings. I wonder what could cause this issue?
I have the same problem but it works via update site: http://editbox.sourceforge.net/updates
From Eclipse menu open: Help->Install New Software and paste the link.
I think the problem is with Editbox but I can't figure out what exactly is wrong (I'm the author of the plugin).
I am using STS and I am trying to get history on files. When I do "Show History", I am displayed with this popup, which is pretty much useless. I cannot understand what it means or how to get around it.
Eclipse Subversive fails to open the History view to show the history of a file or folder that is shared via SVN (Subversion). The bug could be caused by the Eclipse platform, the Subversive plug-in or a combination of both. The dialog ask you to send an error report to the developer, so they can fix the problem.
Probably the error has already been fixed (see Eclipse bug 471782). So click Don't Send, make sure you use the latest version of Eclipse and of the Subversive plug-in and try again. If the error occurs again, please report it to Eclipse.
I have Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (Indigo) and have been using it for several months.
I had many installed plugins including a SVN one and e-git.
Then one day, they just all stopped working. For example, I used to be able to commit from the Explorer (using the SVN plugin), but that option has disappeared as if it is not installed.
I have checked the installed software list and they are all present.
Is there a setting somewhere that I may have miss?
Thanks in adavnced!
Please check the error log in workspace/.metadata/.log to see if there is any warnings or errors.
Also, have you tried other perspectives, like plug-in development, or SVN.
Open eclipse
Go to Window -> Show view -> Other -> SVN
Choose new workspace and check out the project that you did
I have the following configuration
OS: Win XP
Eclipse: Galileo
And i want to install EGIT on it (i already have subclipse). I tried going to Help -> Install New Software but EGIT was not on the list. I tried downloaing from the site but download link http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates is not opening in the browser (chrome)
Please help me how to install Egit.
Thanks
If the update site (see below) really don't work, you still can try the zip download option.
But you should be able to declare and use the Egit update site, as illustrated in the Egit tutorial, provided you have the right Network connection preferences, allowing you Internet access.
Use the Eclipse Update manager to install the EGit plugin from http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
I had a very similar problem to this.
I hadn't realised, but the problem was that I still had a proxy server configured (which was no longer turned on).
To solve, I went to Window > Preferences > General > Network Connections.
Would have nice for Eclipse to actually tell me there was a problem to do with the proxy server rather than throwing/reporting some obscure exception...
You need to add the egit link to Eclipse, so it searches it. In the text box it presents (when you go to Install New Software on the Help menu) enter the egit URL and hit enter - it should find the egit plugin and allow it to be selected for install.
