Hello,

I've just extracted the newest Version of Dave (4.4.2, 64Bit) and I was supprised, that there is no Git-Repositories View available as in the Version I've used before.

What can I do to get the Repositories View?

Best regards,
Michael

Hi,

Please install the eGit Eclipse integration:
1. Use the menu Help > Install New Software and enter http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates in the Work with field as shown below
2. Select the plugin and press Next. Step through the rest of the dialogs, and after a restart the Git Perspective will be available.

Installing plugins via Eclipse update site does not work:

I also have a possibly related problem:
The repository at http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/update-site/stable is not even recognized as an Eclipse update site.

In vanilla Eclipse both plugins can be installed without errors.

While we are at it: Where is the Eclipse Marketplace?


Kind regards

Sebastian

Hi,

To fix the issues with the eGit installation add the org.eclipse.e4.ui update site as below

The vrapper plugin can be installed using the zip file at https://netix.dl.sourceforge.net/project/vrapper/vrapper/0.72.0/vrapper_0.72.0_20170311.zip
Use the Help>Install New Software and click in the Add button to use the zip file

Regarding the market place, yes it is not enabled. You will need to install the Eclipse MarketPlace Client.

ok, that worked => using http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates-4.6.1 (with ...-4.6.1) does the trick
