My IDE is Eclipse for RCP developers, Helios SR2. I have already installed Buckminster core and Subclipse support (and it's all working ok).

Now I want to install Buckminster Git support, plus EGit and JGit. However, I get the following reported:

Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.
Software being installed: Buckminster - Git Support 1.0.360.r11751 (org.eclipse.buckminster.git.feature.feature.group 1.0.360.r11751)
Software being installed: Eclipse EGit 1.0.0.201106090707-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 1.0.0.201106090707-r)
Only one of the following can be installed at once:
Git Team Provider Core (Incubation) 0.11.1 (org.eclipse.egit.core 0.11.1)
Git Team Provider Core 1.0.0.201106090707-r (org.eclipse.egit.core 1.0.0.201106090707-r)
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: Reader type extension for GIT 1.0.0.r11751 (org.eclipse.buckminster.git 1.0.0.r11751)
To: bundle org.eclipse.egit.core [0.11.0,1.0.0)
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: Buckminster - Git Support 1.0.360.r11751 (org.eclipse.buckminster.git.feature.feature.group 1.0.360.r11751)
To: org.eclipse.buckminster.git [1.0.0.r11751]
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: Eclipse EGit 1.0.0.201106090707-r (org.eclipse.egit.feature.group 1.0.0.201106090707-r)
To: org.eclipse.egit.core [1.0.0.201106090707-r]

I looks like Buckminster has an exact version requirement for EGit of 0.11.1. If I untick the "show only latest versions of available software", and then select the older EGit/JGit Incubation 0.11.1 rather than the latest EGit/JGit 1.0.0.201106090707-r, then the install proceeds ok.

Is it possible for Buckminster Git support in Helios to use EGit 1.0.0? I know that it's ok in Indigo, but some of us are still on Helios.

Thanks

It's doable of course but I'm afraid that would be a lot more work than just changing the version ranges. EGit/JGit
changed a lot of API's between 0.11.1 and 1.0.0 and we've also changed some of the common classes that the reader types
are based on.

I would of course consider a well tested patch ;-)

Thanks for letting us know the situation, Thomas - clearly updating the EGit support in Helios is not worth the time required. I'll use this in my push to get our guys over to Indigo.

Hi Thomas and Matthew,

Actually, since we're still on Helios too, but wanted the latest Git, I've
built org.eclipse.buckminster.git (version r11751 aka 9ff9606689437) against
the latest EGit/JGit stable-1.0 branch locally a while ago.

It builds without any changes and so far we haven't had any problems with it.

Regards,
Carsten Reckord

Did you try using branches or tags?

I didn't try tags, but branches worked well.
