Update: Tracked down the issue. Looks like Eclipse is biting on ENV values that contain "${" in the value. A user was changing his command prompt to incude his username, hostname and pwd. After he commented it out of his .profile, it avoided the issue. As a result I added a bugfix to fix that in our development stream that should get into our next release.

Looks like a duplicate of https://aptana.lighthouseapp.com/projects/35272/tickets/1867-git-push-has-encountered-a-problem

I'm not able to replicate the issue, but if you could provide some more details on that ticket I can take a look, since I wrote all of our git support. It's likely that somehow something like $USER is sneaking into the git executable path, and when passed along to the launching infrastructure, it tries to interpret it as an eclipse launching variable (as opposed to a ENV var) that it can't resolve.
