Below is the error i am getting while trying to install egit.

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Git integration for Eclipse 5.4.2.201908231537-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 5.4.2.201908231537-r)
Missing requirement: Git integration for Eclipse 5.4.2.201908231537-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 5.4.2.201908231537-r) requires 'org.eclipse.core.runtime [3.12.0,4.0.0)' but it could not be found

Thanks in advance.

Your version of Eclipse is too old. Update to the current release.

Your RAD version may well be up-to-date (though 2015 is not exactly all that recent). But that's too old to install the latest version of EGit. There are lots of old versions available:

https://download.eclipse.org/egit/

You'd need to find out which version will install, e.g., is quite old

You might also want to verify whether it's a feature you can already enable from within the Installation Manager. The documentation for the current release, 9.7, mentions eGit specifically as being included.

Interesting; hadn't seen that. RSA 9.7 is based on Eclipse Oxygen, so I wonder what version of EGit they'd serve. Probably 4.8 or 4.9. Those were current back then: Oxygen is already two years old.

In any case newest EGit from the normal EGit update site (either 5.5.0 or nightly) installs and works fine on RSA 9.7. No need for IBM's Installation Manager at all.

RSA 9.5 was based on a much older Eclipse version (4.4, i.e., Eclipse Luna), so recent EGit versions won't install. The latest that might work on RSA 9.5 would be EGit 5.0.3 from September 2018, which can be installed from the old 5.0.3 update site.

Looking at the metadata

https://download.eclipse.org/oomph/archive/simrel/egit.aggrcon/http___download.eclipse.org_egit_updates-5.5/org.eclipse.egit.feature.group_5.5.0.201909110433-r.html

I.e., 
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.core.runtime" range="[3.12.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.core.resources" range="[3.11.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.core.filesystem" range="[1.6.0,2.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.ui" range="[3.108.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.team.ui" range="[3.8.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.jface.text" range="[3.11.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.ui.ide" range="[3.12.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor" range="[3.10.0,4.0.0)"/>
    <required namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu" name="org.eclipse.compare" range="[3.6.0,4.0.0)"/>

It seems to me that indeed the latest version EGit should install in anything older than Neon...

Typo? Did you mean "should not"? Or "newer"? I thought we had updated all minimum requirements to what was in Neon.0 a while ago.

IBM's own page on RSA 9.7 says they include EGit 4.1.1. Which is, even given the notoriously conservative policies IBM seems to have for updating for RSA, outright ridiculous. That's four year old version.

Yes, sorry, the "not" versus newer/older got screwed up.

So you're trying to install a new EGit into an installation with an old version of Eclipse that's not compatible with the new EGit. The only workaround for that is to find an older version of EGit that is compatible. All the EGit repos are here:

https://download.eclipse.org/egit/

Some older version from that will work.
