I'm trying to install eGit in IBM RDI V 9.6.06 at Eclipse Marketplace and gets this messages, what to do?

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Git integration for Eclipse - Source Code 5.6.1.202002131546-r (org.eclipse.egit.source.feature.group 5.6.1.202002131546-r)
Missing requirement: Git integration for Eclipse - UI 5.6.1.202002131546-r (org.eclipse.egit.ui 5.6.1.202002131546-r) requires 'bundle org.apache.ant [1.10.5,2.0.0)' but it could not be found

Add https://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/R20191126223242/repository as an update site, and have "Contact all update sites" checked when trying to install EGit.

I am seeing a similar issue
RDi 9.6 is based on Eclipse 4.6.3 which contains org.apached.ant plugin at 1.9.?
But when you request EGit via Eclipse marketplace it claims to give you EGit 5.5.1 but in fact it attempt to install 5.6.1 which requires org.apache.ant [1.10.5,2.0.0) and the install fails with the error

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

It seems that there is a configuration problem that is making impossible for our customers to install EGit via Eclipse Marketpalce even though this is very popular.,
Yes you can get around this by using Install New Software with a specific URL
But this is hard to discover for many of our customers who are not technically sophisticated.
This must be a simple configuration error, where Marketplace should be configured to instal 5.5.1 and not 5.6.1 for Eclipse level 4.6.3
