Build Identifier: It looks like JGit for some strange reasons lost reference to author indent. As far as I investigate it, this occurs only in EGit Synchronization and *only* for latest commit that is displayed in Sync-view. Initially for obtaining base commit in GitModelCommit class I use remote commit parent using this call: remoteCommit.getParent(0); But during debugging it occurs that sometimes: remoteCommit.getParent(0).getAuthorIdent(); throws NPE even when theirs ObjectId were returned properly. Therefore I've used RevWalk to re-parse RevCommit object. This seams to work because none of baseCommit.getAuthorIdent() throws NPE. But suddenly it occur that re-parsed object few moments after it is re-parsed also loses reference to author indent Reproducible: Always

Upping the severity as people are hitting this in the field more often now when playing with the nightlies.
According to Shawn's mail on jgit-dev[1], this isn't a bug but consequence of keeping high performance on JGit implementation. I'll fix this in EGit in a few moments ;) 1. http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/jgit-dev/msg00566.html
