Description James Blackburn CLA 2011-02-25 12:29:59 EST
Using egit 0.11.3 - I have 10's-of-thousands of these logged to my error log:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.egit.ui 4 0 2011-02-25 17:25:58.420
!MESSAGE Errors occurred while applying Git decorations to resources.

It started recently and may be related to the fact that project I'm using is stored in CVS, but I git init'd a subtree of it to more easily do multiple branches of work on the project locally.  Perhaps egit has noticed the .git directory and thinks the project should be shared with git? (I haven't explicitly tried to use egit with this project within Eclipse...)
