How to Setup Egit With Eclipse

This is how I setup my eclipse to install egit plugin and use it.

1.) Install EGIT -> http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates.

2.) Create public ssh key -> http://help.github.com/key-setup-redirect.

3.) You can add it by pressing the menu in the top right corner: select SSH public keys.

4.) Setup eclipse:
a.) Go to Preferences->General->Network->connections/SSH2 or filter ssh.
b.) On the Private Keys field select your private key. (File without extension and by default located here -> C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\.ssh.

5.) Lastly go to Preferences->Team->Git->Configuration, add the following 2 entries (name and email).
