Description Michael Keppler CLA 2018-06-30 13:58:26 EDT 
I regularly see PushTest fail on Gerrit changes, like over here: https://ci.eclipse.org/egit/job/egit.gerrit/10598/testReport/junit/org.eclipse.egit.ui.httpauth/PushTest/testPush/

Locally, that test works fine for me, even when run many times. Anyone with a good idea what we could change?

Such failing tests can be quite disturbing since I don't know a way to directly retrigger a Jenkins build (as a non committer). I can only rebase or add trivial changes to indirectly rebuild, but of course I want to avoid you having to do a review again just because of such nonsense changes of mine.

A more recent error message from https://ci.eclipse.org/egit/job/egit.gerrit/11082/testReport/junit/org.eclipse.egit.ui.httpauth/PushTest/testPush/

java.io.IOException: Could not delete file /jobs/genie.egit/egit.gerrit/workspace/org.eclipse.egit.ui.test/target/trash/test1541923468717.git/gc.log.lock.133c3dd1641b42e3932c40d3bd636401
	at org.eclipse.egit.ui.httpauth.PushTest.tearDown(PushTest.java:114)

Who knows the details of that garbage collection locking?
