How to fix Egit using KDS?

jasonscott — Fri, 16 Mar 2018 19:23:44 GMT

First let me start by saying i am not familiar with git at all, i use the commit/push/fetch commands and that is it.

Egit stopped working through the KDS.

i can still use git extensions to push to our visual studios repository.

However, i whenever i attempt through the KDS i am prompted with a login message that has not appeared until now.

if i click cancel i can get to the configuration settings, but have no clue on how to configure it.

Is there any tutorials or information i can look at to help figure this out?

Thanks

Jason

So i fixed this issue.

It appeared to be a simple fix with the git/visual studios login authentication.

Through the web interface, all I had to do was add "Alternate authentication credentials".

On the KDS.

Right Click on Project -> Team -> Show In Repositories View.

Locate "Remotes" -> "Origins".

Right Click on "Push".

It will prompt for a new user and password.

Check the "Store in Secure Store" to save the credentials for good.

If you do not see an "origin" one will have to be created.

Right click on "Remotes" -> Create Remote.

Name the remote.

Click Change for the URL.

Enter your URL to the git repository.

Then you should be set.
