I have tried the plugin on windows and it works just fine. However we are running into issues with few folders checked in in RTC through the browser where there is trailing white space in folder names. Would like to try the plugin on linux platform to see if the changesets associated with these folder names get accepted successfully.

I have installed eclipse and configured SCM Path in my linux server. The plugin is copied under /jazz/scmtools/eclipse/plugins . However the migrate-to-git command is not enabled. Any suggestions would be helpful.

@fabieu back then, when we migrated all our source we let the complete migration run within a Linux docker image. Therefore yes, at least at one point the Linux SCM Tools where tested. There are still some docker images available here: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/rtcto/rtc2git

Its actually more advisable to do the migration on linux, because it can handle case sensitive commits (windows cant). However rtc2gitcli wasnt tested there for a while. But the docker image should still work I think
