I'm using ant-git-tasks with jgit 3.5.1.201410131835-r and jgit-ant of the same version

Calling the fetch command with the jgit API works on alternate tries. The problem manifests itself as a result of type RefUpdate.Result.LOCK_FAILURE. I notice that on alternate calls the .git/remotes/origin/master file is removed and then restored. I assume this change and the failure are related.

Note that a call to the git fetch from the command line for this repo works fine every time. Also, after, a LOCK_FAILURE a call to git fetch results in the missing file being restored.

Any ideas?

I'm new to git so if there's some useful info i have not provided please adivse.
