Steps to reproduce: 1) Create some changes in a EAR Git project (only on the web tier) 2) Don't commit or stage any of the changes in Git 3) On the Java EE view, right click the EAR project and select Team > Create Patch 4) Select clipboard and select next 5) Keep the default values and click finish Once you click finish the dialog doesn't go away and nothing is copied into the clipboard. There is no error message or anything to signify what the issue is. I tried doing this on the Web project where all my changes were and it worked successfully. I tried on any other tier and it said there were no changes for the current selection. To be specific, the ear project is "appname" and the web project is "appnameWeb". The "Error Log" view had this: Message: Patch file was not written java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext.run(ModalContext.java:421) at
