Eclipse JGit: Java implementation of Git 4.5

Features

• Push implementation of option strings.
  
  Example usage:
  
      $ ./jgit push \
  
        --push-option "Reviewer=j.doe@example.org" \
  
        --push-option "<arbitrary string>" \
  
        origin HEAD:refs/for/master
  
  Push options were also added to cgit
• Packet logging for JGit
  
  Imitate the packet tracing feature from C Git. Unlike C Git, use the log4j
  
  log level setting instead of the GIT_TRACE_PACKET environment variable
  
  to enable tracing. Use as follows:
  
  1. Enable tracing by adding the lines
  
          log4j.logger.org.eclipse.jgit.transport=DEBUG, stderr
  
          log4j.additivity.org.eclipse.jgit.transport=false
  
      to org.eclipse.jgit.pgm/resources/log4j.properties.
  
  2. mvn package
  
  3. org.eclipse.jgit.pgm/target/jgit \
  
          ls-remote git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git 2>&1 | less
  
  Then the output provides a trace of packets sent and received over the wire
• Shallow fetch/clone: Make --depth mean the total history depth
  
  cgit changed the --depth parameter to mean the total depth of history
  
  rather than the depth of ancestors to be returned. JGit still uses
  
  the latter meaning, so update it to match cgit.
• Shallow fetch: Respect "shallow" lines
• ReceivePack: report protocol parsing failures on channel 3
• Push: Report fatal server errors during pack writing
• Add configureJSch() method to allow configuration of JSch objects
• Add support for post-commit hooks
• Enhance ResetCommand to allow disabling reflog update

JGit Command Line
