2019-09 is not in list. Users with eclipse (2019-03) also have problems.

The problem was solved in the GitHub repository on Jan 14, 2020. Please refer to issue 290 and/or commit b8d4e67529a3619d919e7c45f9cb6255ef2b9843.

There is no build yet (April 17, 2020), but it is quite easy to build it yourself. There are very good instructions in the readme of the GitHub repository.

I cloned the repository and used JDK 8 and Apache Ant 1.9.7 for compilation. I also tried a newer Eclipse version to build against, but that did not work for me. Downloading the given Eclipse 3.5.2 and EGit 2.1.0 made the job.
