Description Jan Lohre CLA 2012-01-17 07:35:47 EST 
If I click "Compare with"->"Local history" within my editors context menu the history view opens and I can see the local history for under a second. Then the view switches to the EGit history.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Java file (maybe populate the local history by making some changes and save in between)
2. Right-click in editor and select "Compare with"->"Local history"

Interestingly "Compare with"->"Local history" from the Package Exploere works as I would expect.

I am using e4 4.1.

I think this was a problem with earlier versions of Eclipse 4, works for me on Eclipse 4.3.
