![]() The various streams used in JGit for text/binary and CR-LF detection used different buffer sizes. Most used 8000, but one used 8KiB, and one used 8096 (SIC!) bytes. Considering only the first 8kB of a file/blob is not sufficient; it may give behavior incompatible with C git. C git considers the whole blob; since it uses memory-mapped files it can do so with acceptable performance. Doing this in JGit would most likely incur a noticeable performance penalty. But 8kB is a bit small; in the file in bug 576971 the limit was hit before the first CR-LF, which occurred on line 155 at offset 9759 in the file. Make RawText.FIRST_FEW_BYTES only a default and minimum setting, and set it to 8KiB. Make the actual buffer size configurable: provide static methods getBufferSize() and setBuffersize(), and use getBufferSize() throughout instead of the constant. This enables users of the JGit library to set their own possibly larger buffer size.

Java Git
An implementation of the Git version control system in pure Java.
This project is licensed under the EDL (Eclipse Distribution License).
JGit can be imported straight into Eclipse and built and tested from there. It can be built from the command line using Maven or Bazel. The CI builds use Maven and run on Jenkins.
-
org.eclipse.jgit
A pure Java library capable of being run standalone, with no additional support libraries. It provides classes to read and write a Git repository and operate on a working directory.
All portions of JGit are covered by the EDL. Absolutely no GPL, LGPL or EPL contributions are accepted within this package.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.ant
Ant tasks based on JGit.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.archive
Support for exporting to various archive formats (zip etc).
-
org.eclipse.jgit.http.apache
Apache httpclient support.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.http.server
Server for the smart and dumb Git HTTP protocol.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.lfs
Support for LFS (Large File Storage).
-
org.eclipse.jgit.lfs.server
Basic LFS server support.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.packaging
Production of Eclipse features and p2 repository for JGit. See the JGit Wiki on why and how to use this module.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.pgm
Command-line interface Git commands implemented using JGit ("pgm" stands for program).
-
org.eclipse.jgit.ssh.apache
Client support for the ssh protocol based on Apache Mina sshd.
-
org.eclipse.jgit.ui
Simple UI for displaying git log.
Tests
- org.eclipse.jgit.junit, org.eclipse.jgit.junit.http, org.eclipse.jgit.junit.ssh: Helpers for unit testing
- org.eclipse.jgit.ant.test: Unit tests for org.eclipse.jgit.ant

- org.eclipse.jgit.test: Unit tests for org.eclipse.jgit
Warnings/Caveats
-
Native symbolic links are supported, provided the file system supports them. For Windows you must use a non-administrator account and have the SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege.
-
Only the timestamp of the index is used by JGit if the index is dirty.
-
JGit requires at least a Java 8 JDK.
-
CRLF conversion is performed depending on the
core.autocrlf
setting, however Git for Windows by default stores that setting during installation in the "system wide" configuration file. If Git is not installed, use the global or repository configuration for the core.autocrlf setting. -
The system wide configuration file is located relative to where C Git is installed. Make sure Git can be found via the PATH environment variable. When installing Git for Windows check the "Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt" option. There are other options like Eclipse settings that can be used for pointing out where C Git is installed. Modifying PATH is the recommended option if C Git is installed.
-
We try to use the same notation of
$HOME
as C Git does. On Windows this is often not the same value as theuser.home
system property.
Features
-
org.eclipse.jgit
-
Read loose and packed commits, trees, blobs, including deltafied objects.
-
Read objects from shared repositories
-
Write loose commits, trees, blobs.
-
Write blobs from local files or Java InputStreams.
-

-

-
Lazily loads objects as necessary.
-

-
Read, update and write the Git index.
-

-
Walk the history from a given set of commits looking for commits introducing changes in files under a specified path.
-
Object transport
Fetch via ssh, git, http, Amazon S3 and bundles. Push via ssh, git and Amazon S3. JGit does not yet deltify the pushed packs so they may be a lot larger than C Git packs.
-
Garbage collection
-
Merge
-
Rebase
-

Missing Features
There are some missing features:
- verifying signed commits
- signing tags
