I am unable to install Eclipse plugin for Git (EGit) in my Eclipse (Helios version 2).
Have tried to install EGit through url in eclipse install new Software : http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
I am getting below error :
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found. Software being installed: Eclipse EGit 2.2.0.201212191850-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 2.2.0.201212191850-r) Missing requirement: Eclipse EGit 2.2.0.201212191850-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 2.2.0.201212191850-r) requires 'org.eclipse.core.runtime [3.7.0,4.0.0)' but it could not be found
I have tried but failed to install dependency mentioned above. So wondering if Git is supported on Helios. Am i missing something? Thanks.
EGit 2.2 requires Eclipse 3.7 or greater, see "What versions of Eclipse does EGit target?" in the FAQ.
If you don't want to upgrade to Eclipse 3.7 or greater yet, you can still install EGit 2.1 from the following update site:
