In the old synchronize view, when I've done "update from repository" I got a deadlock.
Created attachment 5817 [details] Deadlock dump
It appears that the deadlock is caused by the workspace lock (scheduling rule) being obtained both before the syncExec and within the syncExec. Thus, the sync exec being run in main is blocked on the lock held by the originating thread. I don't think the CVS code involved has changed recently (old sync view). Did the old workspace lock handle this case gracefully(John?).
You can mark this as a dup of bug 41925 if you want.
We'll leave it separate for now in order to investigate whether we want to fix the code to avoid this.
