Integrate RTC with EGit
Quick question, is possible to integrate EGit and RTC?, what I'm trying to do is to link Egit commits with RTC work items, I found the Git adapter for RTC, but it uses GitWeb, I never used GitWeb before, but what I understand it is a web interface to explore Git repositories, but I want to make commits from EGit not from GitWeb, is this possible? also my git repository and RTC project is hosted on JazzHub.
Thanks.

Yes, I already did that, but what I want to do is to link Git commits with RTC work items, but all the tutorial I found are using GitWeb and I want to use EGit, but I'm not sure if this is possible. Using the adapter I can link it using a syntax like this on the commit comment "bug(testProject) 542", this will link the commit with the work item 542, but again, this is for GitWeb and I want to use Egit.
Thanks.
Hi Cesar, perhaps you already reviewed the help in the Rational Adapter for Git information center. But if not, note that the overview topic says:
"With IBM® Rational Adapter for Git you can link Git commits and Gerrit changes with Rational Team Concert work items.... Developers can continue to use their preferred Git client, such as EGit or command line, to commit and push their source code changes."
See the video and the following help topics in that section for more details.
I hope that helps,

JazzHub currently uses the Git Adapter to link commits in GitHub to work items, so if your project is connected to a GitHub repo, this integration is built in. It seems reasonable that we could extend this integration to our hosted git repos. I've made a note in a work item for your request.
