The key lies in when you create the project in eclipse.

First step, you create the Java project in eclipse. Right click on the project and choose Team > Share>Git.

In the Configure Git Repository dialog, ensure that you select the option to create the Repository in the parent folder of the project.. enter image description here Then you can push to github.

N.B: Eclipse will give you a warning about putting git repositories in your workspace. So when you create your project, set your project directory outside the default workspace.

I have the same issue and solved it by reading this post  while solving it  I hitted a problem  auth failed    And I finally solved it by using a ssh key way to authorize myself   I found the EGit offical guide very useful and I configured the ssh way successfully by refer to the Eclipse SSH Configuration section in the link provided    Hope it helps
