Description Ondrej Vrabec 2014-04-18 09:13:59 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20140408-52508b7ad3dd)
Operating System = Linux version 3.11.10-7-desktop running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0-ea
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.0-b66

JGit itself is unable to work with symlinks. We need to add its extension benefiting from java7 java.nio.*
