I found that in (native)git, when I try execute REBASE on dirty working tree, git stops with warning: "Working tree is dirty"

When I try this with Eclipse, there is no problem to EGit/JGit.

It is very dangerous when you try eg PULL (with rebase strategy).
When EGit hit in conflict, and you select "abort rebase", you lost all your uncommited changes.
"Rebase abort" is like reset hard.

I think rebase should check status before starts, and not execute if there are any uncommited changes.

Best regards
Pawel.
