Now Eclipse can compare two git version at the project level. Thanks to the SHA-1's the compare is very quick. There is some extra cost for version managed archives (zip/jars) as Eclipse insists on comparing the contents of those at the file level too. Not that I mind that. It is useful and cool. (No, it doesn't compare open office documents in any useful manner, unless you happen to have a plugin for it, in which case it might actually work.)

Along with this some experiments with caching and a minor bug fix in the commit reader.

If anyone besides me actually uses this, please send a comment.
