Why if I create a local repository, then create a github repository and then add that as remote, I commit to local and then I push to remote, but I have no ability to pull from remote to local?
If I add remote using git bash all is well remote is properly configured and I can pull, and push and fetch to upstream but if I do it thru the EGIT wizard it never works for local repositories that get pushed and then get fetched and merged... Any clues?
Here is the log post:

Create a new, empty Git repository on your remote server. Obtain the git remote add URL for the remote repository and add credentials if needed. Run the git remote add origin command from your local repository with the --set-upstream and the name of the active branch to push.
If you've copied a project from Github, it already has an origin. You can view that origin with the command git remote -v, which will list the URL of the remote repo.
To add a new remote, use the git remote add command on the terminal, in the directory your repository is stored at. The git remote add command takes two arguments: A unique remote name, for example, “my_awesome_new_remote_repo” A remote URL, which you can find on the Source sub-tab of your Git repo.
simply add
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
into .git/config to pull from origin/master into master

You can do this in the "Git Repositories" tab.
Window > Show view > Other... > Git > Git Repositories
Expend your project's repository > Right click on "Remotes" > Create Remote...
