Possible to Connect Netbeans with GitHub?

I know the Git integration is Netbeans 7.0 is new and under development, but has anyone had success on pushing/pulling to GitHub?

When I click Git->Push the remote repository url shows up correctly under Step 1. Configured Repository.

But is just stays stuck on " Connecting to repository". It also pops up a box saying "Specify Git repository location" with the exact same url , clicking OK does nothing.

If instead I choose "Specify Git Repository Location" I eventually get an error, "Cannot connect to the remote repository at [email protected]:username/..."

ps. I am aware of the other similar stack questions but they are confusing, one person mentions that he was able to do this, while others mention is not yet possible to use a remote Git connection.

I faced the exact same issue and after I did some research I found that the problem was with the password.

GitHub isn’t accepting passwords for Git operations anymore.

So instead of using a password, Github suggests using Personal Access Token.

  1. Go to your Github account settings.
  2. Go to Developer settings in the sidebar.
  3. Go to Personal access tokens.
  4. Generate new token.

Make sure to check repo scope checkbox to access your repositories.

After you get your access token you can copy it and past it in the password field in the "Specify Git repository location" window and try to push your project.

I have had the same issue. And now it works fine for me. I have done this:

1 With CLI ( Terminal for me) Define your remote repo :

cd yourlocalfolder

git remote add origin [email protected]:username/repo.git

2 Open Netbeans (7.1 for me) Go to Team > Git > Remote > Push

3 You should see your remote repo preselected

4 in Private /public key browse to your rsa file usr/username/ssh/id_rsa

5 Click on Next

6 Done

You need check 'Specify Git Repository Location:' 'Repository URL:' https://github.com/<your username>/<yourGitFile>.git 'User:' <your username>
