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
- Added a clean command.
- Tag command: implement option -d for deleting tags
LFS
- improve exception handling in LfsProtocolServlet
