importing a project into eclipse using egit

Question

I am trying to import this project into eclipse using the egit plugin. I have been using this tutorial to learn how. But the problem is figuring out what to enter into the dialog box within eclipse. Neither of the links above provide adequate information about that. I am including a picture of the eclipse dialog box below. Can anyone show me what to put into each input field in the dialog box?

Here's what you do

1. Right-click Project Explorer and select Import > Import...
2. Select Git/Projects from Git. Click next . Select URI and next .
3. Enter https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-mvc-showcase.git (the git link) into the URI text field. Click next twice.
4. Select a directory and click next .
5. Select Import as general project . Click next .
6. Give it a project name. Click Finish .
7. Right-click the new project, select Configure -> Convert to Maven project
8. Right-click the project, select Run As -> Run on Server

I've tried this and it works on Juno with Tomcat 7.0.22.
