installing EGit under Eclipse Luna (4.4.1)

Installing EGit under Eclipse seems to be a moving target. All instructions I saw differ in some way and at the moment I'm clueless as to how proceed in installing EGit.

Where do I start?

What are the required steps?

First, check whether your Eclipse distribution already contains EGit or not. If yes, you will have a Team/Git page in the preferences.

If not, you can do one of the following:

  1. Install it from the Eclipse Marketplace: http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/egit-git-team-provider - simply drag-and-drop the install link to your eclipse instance.
  2. Open the new software install dialog from the Help/Install New Software, look for the Luna update site (the yearly release repository already added to the list of update sites) and search for the EGit features (available in the Collaboration category).
  3. Follow the instructions from the EGit homepage: https://www.eclipse.org/egit/download/
