I think we need to look at respinning SR2. For the last 18 months we have been pushing the entire community towards git, so now introducing a significant regression into eGit would just be bad news for our users.
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Markus Knauer Sent: February-22-13 5:33 AM To: Cross project issues Subject: Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Reminders for Juno SR2 final steps 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...

But there is a severe bug in EGit that makes EGit 2.3.0 shipped in Juno SR2 a high risk for users.

We don't plan to, but, you never know. (And, don't forget to update Kepler, if you are using the same input for that.) Given that there is a severe bug in EGit. Isn't there a chance to update the repo and the packages with EGit 2.3.1? I understand that it's very late in the game. But the packages will stay there forever on Eclipse.org for download by everbody. Those packages will contain an EGit version that contains a know bug which may delete uncommitted source code in a working copy. -Gunnar -- Gunnar Wagenknecht [email protected] http://wagenknecht.org/ _______________________________________________ cross-project-issues-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev -- ### EclipseSource Group Telefon: +49 721 664733-0 (GMT +2) Telefax: +49 721 66473329 http://eclipsesource.com <http://eclipsesource.com/> Innoopract Informationssysteme GmbH Lammstrasse 21, 76133 Karlsruhe Germany General Manager: Jochen Krause Registered Office: Karlsruhe, Commercial Register Mannheim HRB 107883
