Description Meng-Yuan Huang CLA 2010-11-10 08:01:07 EST 
I want to use egit with http & DAV.

This is my DAV settings:
<VirtualHost *>
    ServerAdmin user@example.com
    ServerName git.example.com
    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/git-error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/git-access.log combined

    <Location "/git">
    DAV on
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Git"
    AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/dav_git.passwd
    Require valid-user
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Then, I used egit to clone a remote git repo:

Unfortunately, while I clicked the next button, an error message occurred:
http://pic.pimg.tw/zxvc/fbafef7b69f2e5421552196007d39741.png

I tried to disable the login auth, i.e. commented "Require valid-user,"
egit works well.

Does it mean that egit 0.9.3 doesn't support DAV auth?
Could egit support DAV auth in the future version?

we now implemented HTTP authentication in EGit, please try that on your environment
