Build Identifier: 20110301-1815

I have two versions of a project checked-out as two non-connected branches in git (from an svn repository far from conforming to the standard layout).

I found that by adding a line in .git/info/grafts (*), the "missing link" could be introduced to git. TortoiseGit shows the connection between the two branches. EGit doesn't.

Reproducible: Always

This has to be implemented in JGit, please see bug 351297.
