Let's take for example github.com/jquery/jquery. You can find there information like:
tjvantoll authored Friday at 10:13 PM
timmywil committed Monday at 10:43 PM
build Release: ensure Sizzle is the latest tag 12 days ago
src Wrap: Declare a dependency on the manipulation module 2 days ago
test Ajax: Support usage without jQuery.event 2 days ago
[...]
I need information like these. Are there methods like getAuthor(), getLastCommit(), etc?
If not, is there another framework which can provide me with these information from Git?

Yes, you need to clone the repo in order to get at the kind of information you want.

org.spearce was renamed to org.eclipse, that might solve some problems. That was almost five years ago, so those tutorials
are pretty old and there are much better APIs nowadays. You should try to stick with the org.eclipse.jgit.api package as
much as possible.

We don't have much tutorials on JGit, except what's been written by third parties, but there's a lot of code in the
form of unit tests, the pgm package and of course EGit.
