From this screenshot, what does the "box2" part mean?
Also, does the box before the "2" mean that I'm missing a font or something?? I think i saw somewhere that there should be an arrow icon before the number.
I assumed it means that there are 2 local changes that haven't been committed, but when I right-click on the repository and choose commit, I am informed that there are no changes to commit.

EGit is the Git integration for Eclipse. Git is a distributed versioning system, which means every developer has a full copy of all history of every revision of the code, making queries against the history very fast and versatile. The EGit project is implementing Eclipse tooling on top of the JGit Java implementation of Git.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found. It seems that there is a configuration problem that is making impossible for our customers to install EGit via Eclipse Marketpalce even though this is very popular., The problem is fixed for 5.7.0 which will be released on Mar 18.
What versions of Eclipse does EGit target? EGit Contained in release train Supported Version of Eclipse 5.11.0 Eclipse 4.19 (2021-03) Eclipse 4.6 + (Neon) 5.10.0 Eclipse 4.18 (2020-12) Eclipse 4.6 + (Neon (*) ) 5.9.0 Eclipse 4.17 (2020-09) Eclipse 4.6 + (Neon) 5.8.1 Eclipse 4.6 + (Neon) 30 more rows ...
If you're new to Git or distributed version control systems generally, then you might want to read Git for Eclipse Users first. More background and details can be found in the on-line book Pro Git .
That box is supposed to be an upwards or downwards arrow, since current software assumes that your OS can display Unicode fonts. (On WinXP, you'll have to install and select those if you haven't already).
An upwards means that your local 'master' branch is ahead of the branch it is tracking (probably 'origin/master'), the number indicates that it's ahead by 2 commits, i.e. you've made two commits which you havent pushed yet.
Analogously, a downward arrow means that that your local branch is behind, i.e. you've fetched from remote but not merged the new remote commits into your local 'master'.
