title: Egit cannot find private GitHub repo
body: <p>I just signed up for a GitHub micro plan and created my first <strong>private repo</strong>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>https://github.com/myproj/repo.git
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>(That's not the real URL). I then installed Egit for Eclipse (Juno), restarted, and tried to import <code>repo.git</code>. When I do so I am getting a <code>Transport Error</code> from Eclipse. Here are the exact steps I took to arrive at this issue:</p>
  
  <p>Downloading eclipse:</p>

  <p>Installing EGit:</p>

  <p>Importing project from GitHub:</p>

  <p>When I try to search for my repo, Eclipse says it's not found:</p>

  <p>Trying again, via <code>Git Repository Exploring</code> perspective:</p>

  <p>"Transport Error": ?!?!</p>

  <p>Being so new to Git, EGit and GitHub, I'm wondering if any of the following are happening:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Do I need to do something from inside my GitHub account/repo (e.g., turn something on, adjust a setting, etc.) to make it "searchable" from inside EGit? SSH keys perhaps?</li>
  <li>Do I need to configure Egit somehow?</li>
  <li>Am I going about this the wrong way entirely?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>The bottom line is: I <em>believe</em> this is the "normal" way to install Eclipse and EGit, so I'm perplexed as to why this isn't working. I'm wondering if it's some bug with EGit and private repos? Thanks in advance.</p>
