Folks:

I'm trying to connect a project in Eclipse 2020-03 to my github repository and use the task list via Mylyn.

The problem is, I'm not seeing the github connector in the list of available repository connectors. Just bugzilla, trac, foglyn, matis, and tuleap.

I've installed all the plug-in's that look related.

Any suggestions on what I'm not seeing?

Here are the relevant plug-in's that are currently installed.

Mylyn Versions Connector: Git 1.16.0.v20170629-1738 org.eclipse.mylyn.git.feature.group Eclipse Mylyn
Git integration for Eclipse 5.7.0.202003110725-r org.eclipse.egit.feature.group Eclipse EGit
Mylyn Versions 1.17.0.v20180628-1737 org.eclipse.mylyn.versions.feature.group Eclipse Mylyn
Mylyn Commons 3.25.0.v20190131-2250 org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.feature.group Eclipse Mylyn

Thanks!

david

See https://www.eclipse.org/egit/download/ : the Mylyn Github connector is in a separate p2 update site at https://download.eclipse.org/egit/github/updates .

After a fair bit of poking around, I noticed there was an update for the git plug-in's.

I installed the updates and all of a sudden the github mylyn connector was available.

I established the connection and it's working as expected.

Now I just have to figure out how to use it. :)

This was great information. I had been looking for the github connector for some time. I've downloaded and installed it. I have it working except for two issues. Although I can see labels in the dropbox, they do not stick if applied from within Eclipse. You have to apply the label in GitHub, and then it is pulled down. And, you cannot see any of the milestones created in GitHub within the Eclipse task.

Are there some setting I'm missing somewhere?
