Cloning Git Repo [message #1843952]

Hi all,

While it's surprising me, I'm failing to clone Eclipse RAP git repo BUT I found no other (recent) topic on that issue.

According to https://www.eclipse.org/rap/source/, I guess that a simple:
git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git
should work.

But I get after 2 minutes:

~$ git clone  git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git
Cloning into 'org.eclipse.rap'...
npfatal: unable to connect to git.eclipse.org:
git.eclipse.org[0: 198.41.30.196]: errno=Connection timed out

(tried from two different machines Windows/Ubuntu on two different networks)

Also it's mentioned it's cloned on Github, but I failed to find the repo on:
https://github.com/eclipse/

On its side, https://git.eclipse.org/c/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git/tree is still accessible.

Anything I missed. Should I create a Bugzilla ticket?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Best regards.

The git:// protocol was removed for all Eclipse-hosted repositories. See this bug for details: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=574076

Yep, that is correct, the git protocol has been shut down recently.
I've updated our documentation at https://www.eclipse.org/rap/source/

Thanks for reporting it!

Regards,
Markus

Sorry I missed that one:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=574076

It works well with:

git clone https://git.eclipse.org/r/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git

As now updated on https://www.eclipse.org/rap/source/

You might remove the mention about mirroring on GitHub as Bug#574076 is also suggesting that GitHub mirroring is no more supported.

Thanks a lot.

I'll push the remove-GitHub-mirror change on Friday, together with the page updates for M3.

Thanks and regards
Markus
