Description Borislav Kapukaranov CLA 2011-03-11 10:27:52 EST 
If i have two git repositories imported in EGit and i have created branch "branchA" in "repoA". It is checked out.
Now when i try to create branch called "branchA" in "repoB" EGit aborts the operation saying branch with this name already exists.

I can't reproduce this with the latest release.

Which version of EGit are you using?
Could this be related to bug 337044?
What exact steps (menu paths etc.) did you use for creating the branches?

I also can't reproduce. Please reopen if this is still a problem for you.
