How can I get more information about why a pull failed [message #720129]

I'm working on the repository git.eclipse.org/platform/eclipse.platform.ua.git as a committer and have started to get an authentication error when I perform a pull or synchronize. I can clone repositories without error but if I close a repository and import the projects into a new workspace the pull or synchronize will still fail. I did not get asked for a password, it just failed.

Two things I did today which may or may not be related are updating EGit from http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates-nightly/ and changing my committer password. Since doing these two things I can clone repositories but not do anything else that requires ssh connection to the server.

Here is the log from when I try to synchronize the workspace

I have another machine from which I can still access the repository with no problems.

Have you checked the SSH2 home setting in the preferences of the new workspace (General->Network Connections->SSH2)?

The default in eclipse is %HOME%/ssh, but normally the path is %HOME%/.ssh.

I tried that but it didn't change anything. I was able to access the repository with no problem up until yesterday.

I have things working again. I had to go to the Eclipse preference General/Security/Secure Storage and in the contents tab clear the entries under GIT. It seems that EGit should handle this situation better.

You can already change or clear credentials in the context menu of the push or fetch specification in the Repositories Browser.

But I agree, the error handling has to be improved.
