* regarding the projection: there isn't a predefined projections for the git connector because the test creates the projection and asserts the branches & tags contents of the repository, in similar fashion to the standalone test

* regarding the directory paths: we can't use a test variable, because that isn't relevant: the test is run in a prepackaged war file, outside the repository. The repository runtime class path is effective that of the AS7 container. I agree it's not ideal, but don't know any other way (any other server-side path we can use) in which to validate the connectors in the case of AS7. Thoughts ?
