Setup: Git UI Plugin "EGit" for Eclipse
For Bioddicted web app dev project, I was looking for a git UI for eclipse. Yey, there it is! EGit :)
Eclipse Git Team Provider - eclipse.org
- Launch eclipse
- Menu [Help] -> [Install New Software]
- Add EGit repository by [add]. In add Repository window, name the repository such as "EGit", input the repository url "http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates" If you see "Duplicate location" error, the repo has already been added to your repository list. Click [cancel] on Add Repository window. Click [Available Software Sites] link. Check "Eclipse Git Plugin Update Site" (or the url) and click [OK].
- Select Eclipse Git Plugin Update Site as "Work with:" on "Install" window
- Check "Eclipse Git Team Provider" and "JGit" then click [Finish]
Git operation such as commit, push, pull etc can be done with UI. Here are some screen shots.
# log appears on console is red but don't worry! the app successfully deployed on Heroku.
Enjoy happy coding :)
