[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-17733) Cleanup Central discovery catalog: remove pre-installed items

[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17733?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12982006#comment-12982006 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-17733:
------------------------------------

egit is not preinstalled if you start from the Eclipse Platform Binary, but selecting the whole JBT "Abridged" category will cause it to be installed. That's why I was +0 on removing the connector from Central. Doesn't cause any problems. Does provide a quick way for people to install EGit if they don't already have it in Eclipse. *shrug*

Your comments on the PR suggested bumping this change to CR1, but then you merged it anyway. *confused*

> Here is a list of items that should probably be removed from Central catalog:
> *EGit*: Egit is already included in all Eclipse packages we target (JEE, Standard, PDE, if not all) and is included in JBDS product definition. It is also a dependency of OpenShift tooling so that anything that has OpenShift tools installed is guaranteed to have EGit installed.
> So we should remove EGit from our Central discovery catalogs.
> *jst.server* is already installed in JBDS, so there is no point in having it on JBDS Central
