   Same error happened again today.  I took another look at the stack trace.  The directory:
   * `/home/william/.config` 
   Is a linux desktop standard folder for config files.  
   
   On this system the Git config is:
   
   - `/home/william/.config/git/config`
   
   and 
   
   - `/home/william/.config`  is a symlink  --> `../../data/home/william/.config/`
   - Which collects all these things under a `data/` file tree:  `/data/home/william/.config/`
   
   I noticed in the Eclipse error there is an association with a symbolic link.
   
   One thing to remark on, this error doesn't come-up too often  So, most of the time it seems to work find with the symlink.
