Techniques for troubleshooting issues in EGit

You might encounter issues while working with EGit in HCL OneTest™ Performance. You can find the information about certain issues and how to resolve them.

Warning: When you initialize a new Git repository for a project in an Eclipse perspective, a .gitignore file is created in the project folder. While you commit the contents of a project to the Git repository, the .gitignore file ignores the report files. You can specify additional file types in the .gitignore file so that those file types are ignored when you commit the project contents to the Git repository.

The following topics provide more information about EGit integration issues, their causes, and the resolutions to fix the issues while you work with the Git perspective in HCL OneTest™ Performance.
