Eclipse EGit 1.3.0.201201121315

My view has 'Unstaged Changes (1)' but the command line doesn't seem to think so. Refreshing the view did not help.

---------------

C:\Users\Remy\git\eclipse.platform.ui>git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)

It seems that I get errors when I try to refresh.
