I have been installing few packages on Eclipse Oxygen, with EGit being one of them.

First I put did Windows > Preferences > Available software sites > Add and added EGit with the link http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates.

Then I went on to Help > Install New Software... and selected EGit from the list. I am required to install "Eclipse Git Team Provider" from the list of modules but, I can find only these (see screenshot). Why?

enter image description here

And, if there is any of its equivalent, which is it?

Required by whom? "Git integration for Eclipse" is what you're actually looking for. – nitind

To install EGit, select Git integration for Eclipse > Git integration for Eclipse and if Mylyn is installed also Git integration for Eclipse > Git integration for Eclipse - Task focused interface.

For better usability, project names such as EGit (Git integration for Eclipse; former named: Eclipse Git Team Provider), JGit (Java Implementation of Git) or Buildship (Gradle) are not used in the user interface.
