Feature
Fetch Change from Gerrit
A new wizard provides convenient fetching of changes from Gerrit
Actions for Push and Fetch using upstream configuration
A couple of new actions (Team > Push to Upstream and Team > Fetch from Upstream) allows to directly push to and fetch from the remote stored in the upstream configuration of the currently checked out branch without the need to go through a wizard each time.
Simplified Wizards for Configuration of Fetch and Push
Simplified Fetch and Push Wizards were implemented which also behave much closer to fetch and push in c git.
