Description Doug Schaefer CLA 2011-06-16 16:15:18 EDT
Repository: git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/cdt/test3/org.eclipse.cdt.git

Clone this repo and import the projects. Then do an "Add" on the working directory.

First of all, it took a few minutes while the UI was locked to produce a result. 

In theory, since I didn't change anything, I shouldn't see any files actually added to the index. However I do. First of all many of the files in 'bin' directories show up. I don't have .gitignore set up for these yet, but since EGit doesn't normally add them to the index they shouldn't be there. I then get a number of other files listed that I was surprised to see, again because I didn't change any of them.

It would be great of an EGit developer could clone this repo and try some of these basic workflows to confirm what we're doing wrong.

Could you try out the nightly build and see if this is a CRLF issue?

That is not me who filed this bug but I work with CDT repository too. I want to say that in the past I saw lots of issues like that related to spurious permissions change (Windows, and observing permissions with Cygwin git). Now they are gone, haven't seen them for quite a while. Thanks for that guys. My major complain left is slowness of the staging view which is not a match to command line git, not even close :)
