How to push a specific commit to a remote repo [message #1687320]

Hello,

I need some JGit specific help please.

I am looking to the equivalent of the following using JGit library:

git push [remotename] [commit SHA]:[remotebranchname]

In other words: from a particular repo, I'd like to push everything upto a specific commit to another remote repo.

The org.eclipse.jgit.api.PushCommand seems to be allowing me to specify only the remote name, but not the commit SHA id or the remote branch name.

Could someone please point out what I am missing?

Regards.
Roshan

What you would like to specify with "[commit SHA]:[remotebranchname]" is the so-called refspec. And PushCommand has "setRefSpecs(RefSpec... specs")". Code like

git.push()....setRefSpecs(new RefSpec("1234567890abc:master")).call()

should do the trick.

Ciao
Chris
