Can't commit and sometimes not add, but works on the CLI [message #872002]

I can't commit and sometimes not add files, but can do these operations on the command line. I get these error messages respectively in an Eclipse dialog:

An internal error occurred
Exception caught during execution of commit command

Failed to add resource to index
Failed to add resource to index
Exception caught during execution of add command

My git files reside in a local directory.

I synchronize the directory to the web server using Unison, usually in that direction. Could that have anything to do with it?

How can I troubleshoot this?

I don't have knowledge of that specific problem, but here are a few general observations:
Which version of EGit are you using?
Are your clones inside the workspace? This is not recommended.
How did you import the projects into your workspace? I have seen a few threads here recently, which suggest that you can have problems if the projects are imported in a certain way. You could try deleting the projects (but not the copy on disk), and then re-importing.

Hi,

I'm also getting the same problem.

I saw the same message as Ivan's.
I see every time the same message, even after restarting Eclipse,
or disconnecting/reconnecting the project from/to the repos,
or refreshing the project.

Additionally, then I tried to commit from CUI with git command,
possibly no problem reported.

(Warning message is only shown, but I think this is not a problem with this discussion.
Warning message is:

warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in source/Project/res/values/strings.xml

This is because of the git configuration, that is core.autocrlf=true)

And I say about my env.

No.

Quote:

How did you import the projects into your workspace?

Firstly outside the project workspace, cloned the repository with git command.
Secondly imported with Eclipse GUI, without copying option.

This is a philosophical issue, not a technical one.

The exceptions leave stack traces that often have useful information about what happened.
You can find then in the Error view or <workspace>/.metadata/.log
