Netbeans doesn't display a git option under team

I have git and netbeans installed on Ubuntu and I'm trying to follow these instructions, specifically Team -> Git -> Clone.

However, when I select Team on NetBeans my only options are cvs, mercurial, subversion, local history and create build job, with no git to be seen.

Some of the default shipped plugins tend to "disappear". To find them go to the plugin window -> Installed and mark the "Show details". Then check git and activate.

The plugin portal's update centres were inactive. Fix by;

  1. Navigating to 'Tools' --> 'Plugins' along the top of the IDE.
  2. Go to settings, and tick all the update centres.
  3. Go to Available Plugins, search for git and voila!

Depending on which version of the Netbeans IDE you are using, the git 'plugin' may not be bundled by default.

  1. Navigate to 'Tools' --> 'Plugins' along the top of the IDE.
  2. Navigate into the 'Installed' tab of the plugins popup window.
  3. Search for 'git' in the search box in the upper right of the plugins window.
  4. Git may show up as part of the 'Base IDE' 'plugin' or as the separate git plugin, if it does not show up for either then follow the step below.
  5. If you have not been able to locate git: navigate to the 'Available Plugins' tab of the plugins window
  6. Search for and download this plugin: http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/37577/git-versioning-system-support

Note: The plugin linked is the same git plugin that is shipped with NetBeans by default.
