Eclipse 3.6.2
J/EGit 1.2.0.201110021920

After killing Eclipse in bug 360133, I cannot use "Team > Reset > Hard" any more, since I always get the error below.

I found bug 350677 comment #1:
> To worksround the issue you can delete the lock file (index.lock).
> It is contained in the .git directory.

This worked, but I shouldn't have to know that as an EGit user.
