the EGit contribution went through Gerrit
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/73627/
but unfortunately a later build overwrote the release candidate build on
the download server since I missed to update the build job's configuration.
I restored the release candidate build from Nexus but then noticed that
this would break the fix William had done to workaround this issue
so I rolled back this restore. I am considering to use a Nexus URL next
time since it would have prevented this issue since Nexus doesn't allow
to redeploy a release build. Any concerns against that ?
