What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have a project with local changes.
2. Attempt to replace with latest from Git index
3. Observe the failure

Attempting operation again will fail because the index is locked.

Comment 2 Matthias Sohn CLA 2011-02-28 11:06:25 EST 
- which version of EGit are you using ?
- I just tried with current nightly version on a random test project and "Replace with > File in Git Index" worked for me
- could you retry with latest nightly from http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates-nightly
