EGit has problems with tag names differing only in case on Windows, see 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/360669

This is an issue on the jdt.core repo, since it contains two conflicting 
tag names. In 2.1 nightly builds, EGit shows bad error messages.

The fix is to do this on the command line once:
$ git pack-refs
