Scenario: I have local uncommitted changes to a source file which I want to undo, and get the source file back in its pristine state. In command-line git I would do "git checkout ", but how do I do this in Egit?

Right click on the file -> Replace With -> Index

(old versions might say File in Git Index rather than Index)

or if you want to undo all files that have changed, right click on the project -> Team -> Reset.. -> select the 'hard' radio button -> press the Reset button
