I did the same thing, and it all appears to have worked.  I'm not happy with
the way Egit reports a successful push: the synchronization view is not
updated (unlike Subversive, which cleaned up that view after a commit).
Basically I have to conclude success from the absence of error messages; I
would have preferred some positive message.

Same as I did, except that I had inserted my username, as per the Egit help
info (git://ev...@ra.../gitroot/rails/rails).  I wonder:
could and should I also insert my password? Now I'm asked to type my
Sourceforge password *every* time I access remote (Subversive only required
it once per Eclipse session). I could not find a place to configure that
either.

Can't remember.

I think I was asked for my password only, as I had included mu username in
the URL.

The only place I found was in the Push Wizard (Team|Remote|Push), but I
haven't used the Custom part of that either.

Unfortunately I can't speak the final word on this matter.  Let's together
try to find what works best.
