when i clone git repository with https,
check "Store in Secure Store".
throw exception :
org.eclipse.equinox.security.storage.StorageException: No password provided.

then i delete "secure storage" at Preferences > General > Security > secure storage > Contents > Git,
it's useful.
but when i reboot the eclipse, exception still exist.

the bug exists in 2020-06 and higher version (MacOS x86_64).

"No password provided" means that the master password could not be retrieved from the OS X keystore, or if was retrieved, it could not be verified.

Are there any related errors with stack traces in the log?
Open the file ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.equinox.security/secure_storage with a text editor. It should have, amongst others, lines like
```
/GIT/https\:\\2f\\2f....com\:443/password=....
/GIT/http\:\\2f\\2f...com\:80/password=...
```
What is the clear-text part just after these "=" signs (until the first \t)?
Is there a password stored in the keychain for service "eclipse.equinox.secure" and your user account on the Mac? (Use the keychain app to examine your keychain.)
In file ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.equinox.security/secure_storage, is there a line that starts with "/org.eclipse.equinox.secure.storage/verification/org.eclipse.equinox.security.osxkeystoreintegration="?
