Eclipse installer option to clone Epsilon pulls it from git.eclipse.org

When using the Eclipse installer, an option to locally clone repositories is shown at some point. If Epsilon is selected, the used urls are from "git.eclipse.org" instead of the new GitHub location.

You're right, this needs fixing and the generator that produces the example project wizards under plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.common.dt.examples/src-gen/org/eclipse/epsilon/common/dt/examples also needs updating to point to the GitHub repo.

@kolovos I want to fix this issue. Any suggestions on where I should start ?

The Eclipse Oomph setup has been fixed as of #70. The example project wizard would still need to be fixed.

It's not just the generator - it seems like the way that files are imported into the newly created project would have to change. It looks like the current version navigates through the Gerrit directory listings to fetch the files, and I'm not sure how much we'd have to change things to make it work with Github directory listings.
