1. Set up the ssh key stuff
a. Download and install mysys git according to the github instructions at http://help.github.com/win-git-installation/
b. In C:/Users/you/ssh hide any existing keys (id_rsa and id_rsa.pub) in a subdirectory. If the ssh directory does not exist, create it. Of course, "you" is your username as the OS knows you.
c. From the start menu, run Git-Bash command shell (a regular DOS command shell will not work).
d. In the Git-Bash shell generate an rsa key based on your email (the one you registered at github):
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "you"
and enter your pass phrase and confirm when asked.
e. The previous step should have created C:/User/you/ssh/id_rsa.pub which you can now open in a text editor and copy. At github, go to account settings, SSH Keys, add a key and paste this in the key box.
f. In Git-Bash again (notice the back-ticks in the next line):
$ eval `ssh-agent`
$ ssh-add C:/User/you/ssh/id_rsa
$ ssh git
2. From Eclipse share your project with Egit and then open Git-bash and go to your directory of your apps in your workspace. And now two more steps;
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:{your_user_name}/{your_project_name}.git $ git push -u origin master
After you open Eclipse again and refresh you can see your remote repo under the git-repo view.
