Patch Set 9:

The failures are caused by platform dependent path separator [1]. On Windows the title of the synchronize dialog is
'Synchronize repository: egit\.git' and your tests expect hardcoded 'Synchronize repository: egit/.git'. I also noticed that after the edit steps the test ide starts building. Maybe this could be switched off for these tests in order to reduce the chance of hitting timeout problems.

[1] stack trace:
