Can't uninstall EGit from Eclipse LUNA

Question

EGit plugin is crashing Eclipse time and again, because apparently it gets stuck not being able to connect to the repository (which in facts is unreachable).

I tried to uninstall the plugin many times but it is not being uninstalled:

I followed the sequence Help -> Eclipse Marketplace -> Installed -> EGit -> Uninstall, then I tried both selecting everything or just one of the items (Eclipse Git Team Provider, Java Implementation of Git), Confirmed and clicked Finish and acknowledged the restart.

Every time I go back in the Eclipse Marketplace, the Egit plugin is still installed. And in facts it crashes Eclipse once more.

Has anyone any suggestion to solve this?

Thanks

Answer 1

I used the second answer from the following post and it worked for me:

How can I uninstall Egit feature from Juno?

mkdir disabled disabled/features disabled/plugins

mv features/*egit* disabled/features/
mv plugins/*jgit* disabled/plugins/
mv plugins/*egit* disabled/plugins

Even though the answer was for Juno, I can confirm that this works flawlessly on Luna on Mac OSX.

Cheers!
