get scm configuration back after accidently deletion from xcode 4 - version-control

I would like to know that how do i configure my project(already checked-out) back to my previous repository? I've accidentally deleted all repositories from repositories menu from xcode4. By the way my project was previously configured with xcode 3.x.

Open the Organizer window and select the Repositories tab. Click the plus button in the lower-left corner of the window. Choose Add Working Copy... from the menu. Navigate to your project's folder, select it, and click Open.
Assuming all is well with the local copy (or the repo in Git's world), Xcode will Do the Right Thing when displaying the repo status of the members of your working copy in the affected project. If it doesn't, try closing and re-opening the project.

How to select repository for staging view in Eclipse Luna 4.4?

I'm not able to find a solution to a documented bug in Eclipse (Luna 4.4). I've cloned a git repository from Github into my eclipse workspace view and imported the associated Maven project into my project space. When I then display the staging view in Eclipse, it appears, but says "No Repository Selected" up top. I'm therefore unable to drag any changed files into the staging area and commit them. How do I associate my cloned repository with the staging view?
Try enabling linking between the Git Staging view and other views. You do so by pushing the "Link with Editor and Selection" button on the top right of the view, to the right of the "Refresh" button.
In the top image, the view is not linked.
In the bottom image, the view is linked and the button appears "pushed"
"Enabling linking between the Git Staging view and other views" didn't help in my case. I also tried deleting branch and checking out again. Nothing worked.
What I did was:
Right click on any of the modified file -> Team -> Commit.
Somehow it worked and I could see all modified files in unstaged changes.
I had the same issue. This is what worked for me
- Under the 'Package Explorer' Right click on the your project
-> Team -->Share Projects...
-> Then in the list of projects, select your project
* Seems weird, but sharing back to itself resolved this issue for me
Good Lucks
click on git icon,
select the repositorie you want to use
right clik to show the menu
then select "show in"
then select "git staging"
Maybe you are missing one step. If you have a local repository already:
1. On "Quick Access" of your Eclipse search Git repository
2. Select Team option (Right click on project -> Team) and select Share Project, mark Use or create...and select .git directory of your project cloned.
3. Select Team option and now select Add Index
4. Select Team option and now select Commit, you will see Git View now has your project with the correct branch.

How do I rename my local git repository

I've renamed my remote repository and created a new local repository from it. How do I change it within EGit in Eclipse?
Previous answer list below also has issues. The only solution appears to be:
Backup .project, etc. files
Delete existing project
Import existing local git repository as a "general project"
Put backed up files into the new project
Restart Eclipse
Rename, per se, is not the actual operation -- changing repository is the correct mindset to solving the problem according to a coworker.
Select 'Team->Disconnect'
Select 'Team->Share' On 'Share Project' dialog
Select Git and click Next
Unselect 'Use or create repository in parent folder of project'
Select the new local repository
Checkbox the project name showing correct current location and target location
Click 'Finish'
Eclipse will move existing files from previous local repository to the new local repository.
I just renamed a repository. I use LiClipse, an Eclipse variant which includes EGit. I believe there is no way to do this operation with the EGit UI. Here's how I did it outside of EGit and Eclipse, without confusing them.
In the Git perspective, right-click on the repo, and select Remove repository from view... from the pop-up menu.
A dialogue box offers to delete the repository from the workspace. I interpreted this to mean, delete the repo directory and everything in it from my disk. Press the "No" button.
In the programming language-specific perspective (PyDev, in my case), right-click on the project, and select Delete... from the pop-up menu.
A confirmation dialogue box appears. In this case, I interpret it as just confirming that I want to remove the project's entry from the project list in that perspective. There is a checkbox, "Delete this project from workspace?". Leave that checkbox unchecked. Press the "Yes" button to confirm.
In the finder or command-line, find the repository directory, and change the directory name to the new name.
Return to Eclipse, and the Git perspective.
Select menu item, File... Open projects from file system.... (There is also a small icon with a "+", above the projects list, with tooltip "Add an existing local Git repository to this view". I believe it is different but equivalent.) A dialogue box appears.
Select the (renamed) repository directory. Click Next or Finish to complete the wizard. The Repository appears in the list of Git repositories in EGit.
Return to the programming language-specific perspective appropriate for that repository.
Select menu item, File... Open projects from file system.... A dialogue box appears.
Select the (renamed) repository directory. Click Next or Finish to complete the wizard. The Repository appears in the list of Git repositories in that language-specific perspective.
The project-specific Eclipse settings appear to be stashed away in a file .project within the repository, so they are not modified by the rename happening overhead.

How to resolve a git conflict when pulling (in eclipse)

I accidentally made a mess of and then deleted a java project from eclipse (more specifically, I accidentally moved the classes to a different project and then moved them back, and then deleted the project [from the file system] in eclipse), and now whenever I try to do team -> pull (after running ant -f ...), a window pops up saying that there's a checkout conflict with the files that were deleted. How do I get past this conflict and make pulling work again? I could create a new workspace, checkout everything into there again, and copy the code that I'm currently developing into that workspace, but there must be an easier way. Please educate this git n00b.
Open the "Git repositories" view (Ctrl 3 -> git repositories), right-click your project, select "reset".
In the following dialog, enter "HEAD" in the "Reset to (expression)" field and select Hard.
This will completly reset your workspace to pristine state.
Now, reimport your deleted project (File -> import... -> Existing project")
Now everything is back to the state before your "mess" and you can pull again.

Eclipse Git Synchronize does not display changes

No matter what I do, Eclipse (EGit) doesn't display the changes. I've searched a lot for this issue, but cannot solve it. A friend of mine has the same issue. In the past everything worked fine, but from one day to the other the issue occured.
When I hit Team > Synchronize Workspace, only the dialog "Synchronizing Git: No changes found." appears. When I choose Team > Advanced > Synchronize, the same happens.
I also installed a new Eclipse (with a fresh Windows) and issue was still there. With my Ubuntu notebook everything is fine.
Does anybody have the same issue? Is there a solution? I also tried to install the plugins mentioned in this answer, but it didn't work for me.
Update
Eclipse also displays incoming changes (after fetching from upstream) and the changed files (with an arrow), but the synchronize view still doesn't show the changes.
Update 2 I've tested a project from Github and there everything works as apected. What could be the difference between these two projects? I've checked the repository settings and they are equal. Could the authentication cause the issues? Like I've said, the project works fine on my Ubuntu machine.
I've tried the new EGit, re-cloning the project and nothing worked except this:
In the Synchronize view, click on the dropdown arrow next to Synchronize button, then select "Synchronize...".
In the dialog that appears choose Git, press Next.
Then the crucial part - select destination to be HEAD for your repository and check "Include local uncommitted changes in comparison".
Click Finish.
I used to have the same problem but upgrading to EGit 2.2 seems to have taken care of it. Things are now consistent between "git status" at command line and "Team / Synchronize Workspace" in Eclipse.
You can get EGit from here or you can add the update site http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates-2.2 to Eclipse.
Latest Egit Update Site:
http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
Before you can synchronize your workspace, you need to do a "fetch" from the remote repository (Team -> Fetch from Upstream) to get all the incoming changes into your local repository. Afterwards you can synchronize them.
If you don't want to make two clicks for synchronizing, you can enable "Always launch fetch before synchronisation" in Preferences -> Team -> Git -> Synchronize.
Staged ChangesThis has worked for me :
Whenever you made any changes. Right click on your Project name then Go to Team and click on "Add to Index". Now again Right click on your Project Name then Go to Team and click on "Commit". Now You will see that Git Staging console has been opened and the changes you have made are started displaying in Staged Changes box.
We were strugeling with the same problem. It turned out that we had to remove all options in Git->Synchronize preferences.
We are using Eclipse Juno and Kepler. Removing the options solved the problem for both.
If it helps anyone, I ran into the same problem.
During synchronization, in repository selection, the option Include local uncommitted changes in comparison is not checked and shows No changes found in the Synchronize view. Synchronizing with that option checked, shown the changes.

Eclipse Egit Not Detecting Changed Files

I have been using Egit and Eclipse together for well over a year. I recently upgraded my computer and had to reinstall everything. Previously whenever I would make a change to a file it would immediately get picked up by Egit and show with the red highlight and star next to the file name in the project explorer.
I have everything back up and running exactly as it was, however whenever I make a change the change is not picked up by Egit. I have to perform a 'git status' in order for the files to show as ready to be staged in the file explorer. Am I doing something wrong to have Egit automatically detect changed files and has anyone else had this problem?
which version of EGit are you using
do you get the egit team menu if you right-click any resource in your git tracked project ?
if not then you need to do "Team > Share > Git", then check "Use or create repository in
parent folder of project". If you are using a very recent nightly build version this
will be checked automatically.
when you modify a file tracked by (e)git a text decorator ">" should
appear in front of the modified file
as soon as you stage the modified file (Team > Add) the decorator should show the star
also the staging view should always show the git status for all modified files
You need to "Add to index" all files again probably
Track Changes Click Team > Add on the project node. (This menu item
may read Add to Index on recent versions of Egit)
(From the EGit docs:)
What I've found is that you need to make sure that your git repositories are showing up in the Eclipse Git Repositories view.
In the repositories view, you click on the [very] little Git icon with a green + (plus) sign to Add and Existing Local Git Repository.
Browse to the directory that already has a .git subdir and click Finish. You should then see you local repo show up in that list.
Then you can right click on the repo while still in the repositories view and add pull down to Import Projects.
"Import existing projects" is selected. Click Next.
Your project should be checked off. Add it to a working set if necessary. Click Next (maybe Finish).
I had a similar issue where all my changes just disappeared. Somehow, Eclipse had unselected my Git repository. Once I selected it again, they all came back.
If you have already added your files to Stage then change the branch it will ask you to commit/stash/reset
I faced the same problem. From your git repository view: Right-click -> Show in git staging
For me I have clicked Team --> Advanced --> No Assume Unchanged, fixed the issue
I faced the same problem using eclipse version 2021.12. Whenever I made changes on file, the eclipse didn't detect it.
I solve it by using Intelij IDE.
i just faced this problem by now, and i resolved by clicking in button Refresh in Git Staging:
