No, I wasn't aware of this bug which is a bit scary, thanks for bringing it
up here on cross-projects. Today I am trying very hard to stay calm, but it
seems that this is not that easy.

Some of my thoughts...

- I think it's too late to stop Juno SR2 with this kind of bug. I would
proceed today as planned, everything else seems to involve a very high risk.
- Discuss possible workarounds/solutions for Juno SR2 in parallel...
- If I were a member of the EGit team, I would try to educate my users how
to upgrade to 2.3.1 via wiki, blog posts, newsgroup/forum, mailing list,
other channels...

Regards,
Markus
