Hi,

I just updated my Eclipse 4.3 installation to SR2 (EGit 3.2.0.201312181205-r) and the Remote>Fetch From Gerrit... menu seems to have disappeared. I now have only have Remote>Fetch From...

Is this a "feature" of EGit 3.2? I much preferred having a specific menu. How do I configure to fetch from Gerrit now?

- in the repositories view select the remote pointing to Gerrit
- click "Configure Gerrit..."
- usually the default is ok, otherwise adjust settings
- now gerrit menus should appear and changeid should be generated automatically for new commits

I used this primarily to fetch a specific patchset from refs/changes/**. Is there a viable alternative in EGit 3.2 (or higher) (perhaps I've not found it yet)?

I'm using the commandline now e.g.

git fetch git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/jgit/jgit refs/changes/78/24678/1 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD

but I would prefer to use EGit instead.

Cheers,
Georg

Hi Matthias,

thanks for replying, but that's exactly the dialog

https://wiki.eclipse.org/images/9/90/Egit-3.1-FetchChangeFromGerritDialog.png

I'm missing now (Kepler). I checked that with a clean eclipse-java-kepler-SR2-win32-x86_64 installation, which has

*** Features:
...
org.eclipse.egit (3.2.0.201312181205-r) "Git Team Provider"
org.eclipse.egit.mylyn (3.2.0.201312181205-r) "Git Team Provider"
...
org.eclipse.jgit (3.2.0.201312181205-r) "JGit Core"
...

installed.

After updating from http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
I get:

*** Features:
...
org.eclipse.egit (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "Git Team Provider"
org.eclipse.egit.mylyn (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "Git Team Provider"
org.eclipse.egit.source (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "Git Team Provider"
...
org.eclipse.jgit (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "JGit Core"
org.eclipse.jgit.http.apache (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "JGit Apache httpclient based HTTP support"
org.eclipse.jgit.java7 (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "JGit Core"
org.eclipse.jgit.pgm (3.3.2.201404171909-r) "JGit Command Line Interface"
...

And there's still no Fetch from Gerrit... dialog at the locations described in the help page you linked to in your post.

Any hints?

Cheers, Georg

it's only visible if you did "Configure Gerrit...", as I said in my first comment in this thread
Also see the discussion in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=433439

Thanks for clarifying, I should have read your 1st comment more thoroughly.
