committing single files with jgit/API [message #1702876]

There are special cases, where I need to commit single files - and not all the changed files known by the index.

A commit .call() would commit all changed files - right ?
On the command line I would be able to tell git :

git commit -m 'some single files where changed' file1 file2 file3

(even if file0 and file 4 would be in the index and would have changes)
I would like to know, how I can tell this to git via jgit.

Thanks

CommitCommand has

setOnly(path)

. You can call it multiple times to add all those pathes which you want to have in the commit. E.g.

git.commit().setOnly("src1").setOnly("a.txt").setMessage("First commit").call()

Why do you add files to the index if you don't want them in the next commit?

Ciao
