HI,
I have to build the EGit Source code. I followed the steps specified in EGit Contributor Gudie - http://help.eclipse.org/neon/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.egit.doc%2Fhelp%2FEGit%2FContributor_Guide%2FContributor-Guide.html

I have used Eclipse Mars, JDK 8 and Maven 3.3 for building.
I have downloaded both JGit and EGit from clone and imported into same workspace.

Followed the below steps:
1. Open File > Import... and select Git > Projects from Git
Select URI
2. Enter the URLS below:
EGit URL - https://git.eclipse.org/r/egit/egit.git
JGit URL - https://git.eclipse.org/r/jgit/jgit.git
3. Selected 'master' branch
4. Import existing projects into the workspace from the newly created working directory.
5. After importing the projects to workspace, to resolve the build errors, I followed the steps specified in section "Development IDE Configuration".
6. Followed Option 1 (recommended): Use a Target Platform to add dependencies
7. Open the org.eclipse.egit.target project and selected egit-4.5.target for Eclispe Mars. In the editor, selected the "Set as Target Platform" link.
8. It open the popup "Load as Target Platform" and it is not closed even after 1 hour.

Let me know if you need any error logs to get more details about the issue.

Can you provide me all the steps required to build EGit project in Eclipse Mars.

I have attached the snapshot of "Load as Target Platform" Popup, to give some more context into this issue.
The progress bar shows 0% even after 1 hour.

There are the following instructions for doing all the setup automatically with EGit's Oomph setup:

https://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/Contributor_Guide#Automated_Developer_Setup

I just tried these steps just now, but unless you pick Oxygen for the target platform on the Variables page (instead of Neon, which is the default selection on the Variables page), there is one error in org.eclipse.jgit.junit.http.AppServer.TestLoginService which cannot resolve its base class org.eclipse.jetty.security.AbstractLoginService which I assume must be new for Jetty in Oxygen.

In any case, the master branch will not fully compile against a Mars target platform. I tried activating the mars target, which worked for me, but the following compile errors are the result:

I.e., the new smart import wizard cannot compile against Mars.

Note to EGit developers, you should change your Oomph setup to replace http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/updates/jetty-bundles-9.x/9.2.13.v20150730 with http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/updates/jetty-bundles-9.x/9.4.1.v20170120 in all three of your targlet task's repository groups, and you should change /org.eclipse.jgit.junit.http/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF so that it specifies a proper lower bound for its dependency on the new AbstractLoginService class in the org.eclipse.jetty.security package:

org.eclipse.jetty.security;version="[9.4.0,10.0.0)",

fixed lower bound of jetty.security bundle in manifests in https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/93856/
updated Jetty to 9.4.3 also in Oomph setup in https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/93635/3/tools/oomph/EGit.setup
