Error importing git

Hello All,

I keep running into this error when trying to import a git folder.

org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: Connecting Git team provider failed. See log for details.

Contains: Error connecting project msharifdev, suggested path ‘/.git’ do not match found Git repositories ‘[RepositoryMapping[ → ‘.git’, absolute path: ‘/Users/msharif/CloverETL/msharifdev/.git’ ]]’.

anyone else have this issue? I’m on a mac if that makes a difference.

Hi Mohamed,

Based on the error provided it appears to be a bug in Eclipse itself (see Eclipse bug 324145).

Workaround:

  • First clone the repository on your local machine

  • Then Import → CloverDX → Import external CloverDX project

  • If the project is a CloverDX Server project you will need to choose the option to Convert to Server Project
