In the previous post we discussed how to import remote Git repository. Now let’s look which Git commands are available in EGit plugin. EGit plugin is still not completely ready and does not support all Git commands. You can watch “Understanding and Using Git at Eclipse” webinar to learn what is ready and what the plans are.

Eclipse Helios (ver. 3.6) is out and the second top requested feature was Git support. And here it is: EGit plug-in. It is still in the “Incubation Phase“, but you already can try it.

In this tutorial I will show the basic steps of creating Java project in eclipse using EGit plug-in. Eclipse “Helios” and EGit version 0.8.4 are used in this tutorial.
