Description Olivier Thomann CLA 2011-01-14 12:49:11 EST 
I opened a compare editor for some existing difference and suddently I started to get this NPE.
I had to close Eclipse as I was constantly getting it.

I am using I20110110-1454 (4.1 I-build).

Comment 1 Tomasz Zarna CLA 2011-01-17 06:01:11 EST 
Olivier, do you have a set of reproducible steps?
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2011-01-17 09:35:38 EST 
Not really. Now that the code has been released for the copyrights updated, it is difficult to reproduce.
