Which version of JGit/EGit are you using ?
Are you using public key authentication or user/password authentication with ssh ?

I had exactly the same issue after upgrading to JDK8. I was unable to use my SSH keys to authenticate when pushing or pulling git repos. The solution for me was to uninstall JDK8 and install JDK7.
