Description Christoph Pospiech CLA 2010-03-08 04:07:02 EST 
Build Identifier: M20090917-0800

EGIT fails to import project if git is installed in a non-default location on the remote host. A command line "git clone --upload-pack <location_of_git-upload-pack> ..." succeeds, but EGIT fails with error message that git-upload-pack cannot be found. Allowing for an extra GUI field for git options would solve this problem.

Reproducible: Always

This is a feature request. JGit has to provide this feature.
