Eclipse EGit pushing latest commit hangs plink.exe [message #1390060] Sat, 28 June 2014 21:07

Yesterday I setup EGit and PuTTY so I can share my latest changes to the code to my RPi which then packs my binary into a executable jar, and with quiet alot of extra work, I got it working to some extent, I could successfully push my local resipotory to github, and my RPi could fetch the latest commit if needed. But I still had some minor problems with my RPi executing my code and compiling etc.

However, today everything suddenly stopped working, I could no more push my local resipotory to github for whatever reason and I have just not been able to figure it out (the funny thing about ALL this is that I thought it would be very beneficial if my RPi could stay up to date with my latest code so I wouldn't have to manually export my code to the RPi by remote desktop and dropbox, but it turned out to be even more complicated than I thought it was).

The most annoying thing is that it was working just fine yesterday, I did change a few things in my project within eclipse but other than that, everything should've been the same. Basically EGit first told me that the server host key was not cached. And I resolved that by calling
plink git@github.com
from the command line. After that I was left with another problem: PuTTY Fatal Error: Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available, and after Googleing the problem for a good hour or so, I found out that Pageant had apparently no private key in the Pageant key list. So I had to convert the id_dsa private key generated by eclipse to a PuTTY Private Key File, which resolved that issue, after launching EGit again, I first thought it would work, but oh no! I've never been so wrong in all my life. I tried to push my local resipotory to github, but it got stuck at getting remote branches information, so I tried to cancel it. But it didn't work, I couldn't close the wizard due the process had to be cancelled first. So I had to manually TERMINATE the plink.exe process to close the wizard.

I would be so thankful if anyone could help me out here. Thanks in advance!
