Hello,

I am using Linux Ubuntu 15.04, Eclipse 4.5.2 (Mars.2) and EGit 4.1.1.

I don't succeed to clone a Python repository from EGit through SSH.

Here are the steps :

1. Import...
2. Git / Projects from Git
3. Existing local repository
4. Import using the New Project wizard
5. Finish
6. PyDev Project
7. Setting project name, interpreter...
8. Next -> Finish

Then I get an error Windows :
Connecting Git team provider failed. See log for details.
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException

Here is the log from .metadata/.log :

!ENTRY org.eclipse.egit.ui 4 0 2016-03-03 15:22:37.832

When I import as a General Project (instead of a PyDev project), it does work...

This could have been caused by corrupt workspace metadata, can you try the same using a fresh new workspace ?

Which Eclipse package are you using (JEE, Java, PyDev ...) ?
Is this repository public so that I can try to reproduce your problem ?

I'm getting this same issue. I'm using the Java package and Eclipse Version: Mars.2 Release (4.5.2).

Just like OP, it's a local repository on my computer.

I installed pydev into Eclipse Committer package 4.5.2 and could reproduce the problem.
Will try to debug this

Has there been any progress with this? I am trying to do with with C++ projects in Mars 2. If I check in the .project files everything works correctly, but I would rather not check in the .project files into GIT.

Found a work around that did the trick for me. In a StackOverflow post called "Importing a GitHub project into Eclipse" Last answer. (Sorry my first time posting so the URL was blocked)

"1. Add or create git repository in git view.
2. Click new java project menu, uncheck "use default location", select the git repo location, click finish."

That person was onMars.2 Release (4.5.2). I am on Version: Neon Release (4.6.0) Build id: 20160613-1800 and I am using PyDev and the project is a Google App Engine project.

The project runs now from within Eclipse under the GAE local host and the git functionality via Eclipse is working.

Looks like it is still an issue in Neon (Neon / Scala IDE)
