Is there a stacktrace in the workspace log? 

As for RSE, EGit only works with the local file system.

This is it I think:

We do not support RSE, but occasional linked resources should just
be ignored. 333338 should fix that.

I think this should have been fixed with bug 333338. Please reopen if it still occurs with EGit nightly or the upcoming 2.3.
