You can pick about anything you want that noone is working one. Pick something that you feel is withing your grasp, or something simple outside. We need more test cases (doesn't require much programming skills, but thinking). Unit testing of Eclipse stuff falls into the same category. I have litte experience here, but I think there are lots of examples in Eclipse itself if one starts to poke around.

Diff against workspace/index doesn't work presently. The reworked indexdiffwalker or the iterator could be used for that. Please tell me if you start hacking on this as it's on my listl, just not yet. Should be reasonably hard, involves both jgit and eclipse programming.

There are some issues with selecting versions in the history view on Windows.

Copy diff as git patch to the clipboard and vice verse. Send email.

Harder and might involve more changes all over (that either I or Shawn will object to) is things like rename detection targeted fo r

Interface to quickdiff machinery for committing specific hunks.

Blame (even without rename detection) would be useful. Look at the CVS annotate for inspiration.

Support for git submodules. Will touch the core parts all over the place, but probably not in very intrusive way. Will require lots of test cases.

Not really git, but highlighting of trailing whitespace is on my wish list. I can't find a plugin that does that.

Adjust the commit dialog for amend so it shows all to-be commited changed files when amending.

The number of choices is infinite.

Ant, Cruisecontrol, Maven, etc-tasks.

Pick a pet.
