I just upgraded to Luna and EGit 3.4.1.20140620, and I can't see the file names in the dialog when I try to commit. Here's an example:
index.php/fa/18733/0/

I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling the plugin, to no avail. Any ideas?

Can you see any errors in the workspace log (Error view)?
Is there anything "unusual" about filenames or directory names.

I don't see anything germaine in the error log. There are various messages there, including Maven complaining about something or other, but when I cleared the log, restarted Eclipse, and did a team..commit, I didn't see any new messages.

I don't think there's anything especially unusual about the file names or path. One example is:
/home/coslor/git/maestro/src/test/java/com/rachio/maestro/service/WaterBudgetServiceTest.java

..so, no spaces or Unicode chars or anything like that.

I don't thik it's a permissions issue, either; the file above, for example, looks like this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 coslor coslor 9934 Aug 4 11:06 /home/coslor/git/maestro/src/test/java/com/rachio/maestro/service/WaterBudgetServiceTest.java

I was running Kepler before, and I didn't see this problem. It never remembered my Git logins, but at least it showed the files to be committed.

I'm running Linux Mint 16/Petra, BTW. Aby other ideas? I tried updating to the latest stable nightly, and it didn't seem to help.

Is Eclipse installed under a path which needs elevated file system permissions ?

Nope, it's just in my home directory. For good measure, I did try running Eclipse as root, but it didn't seem to make any difference for this issue.

Are the paths of modified files shown in staging view ?
Then you could commit using staging view.
Any other views lacking text ?

Problem solved! I was also having very frequent Eclipse crashes, so after some research I tried running with:
SWT_GTK3=0 eclipse
That not only solved my crashes, but this issue as well. Seems to have been a SWT problem.
