Integrating Eclipse IDE with Git Using EGit

Unix users usually does all their check-in (commit) using terminal. But I find it is consuming lot of time. Yes, I agree it provides more control over the repository. If you repository is solely used by you, I suggest using plugin. Egit is a plugin provided by eclipse team to integrate with Git.
