We'd like to know if the EGit team has any plans to make all of these actions support extensions to the model providers, and how we could best contribute to this effort.
I am not aware of anyone having this on his plan at the moment. I'd appreciate if you plan to tackle this area, I'll try to help by reviewing and testing your proposals. Since I am not a modeling guy I'd need examples I can use to tryout your changes.
Basically, you need EMF Compare in your dev environment as that is what provides the "EMF" model provider implementation to Team. Afterwards, the repository I have set up on github holds the necessary history to test most comparison actions, bug 393225 explaining what we're expecting as result of the compare with > branch action.
There are no model providers I know of for text files. Building a "mock" one to test the implementation would be another way to test, but I think the best test is that the behavior should change for EMF files while remaining exactly the same for text/java files.
