Description Terry Bauer

When creating a task in Eclipse using the Mylyn GitHub connector for issues, you can see and make a selection from the issue labels defined in GitHub, but the selection is not retained when the task is saved.

Cannot reproduce. Are you a collaborator at the repo where you observed this? Seems to me the code allows to select and change labels, but persists them only if you are a collaborator at the GitHub repo.

If that is the issue here, then maybe that check could be made earlier, and the UI to set/change labels not be offered to non-collaborators.

In GitHub, I am listed as an owner, with admin access to all repositories.

In that case: cannot reproduce. I tried it with a private repository of mine, and the label changes did show up on Github. I used the nightly build of egit-github, and token auth.
