[JGit] First time checkout [message #536808]

Hi,

Trying to discover the ability of checkout files from remote repository to local folder using JGit.

I got stuck after repository creation.

Repository repo = new Repository(new File("C:\\git\\new"));
RepositoryConfig config = repo.getConfig();
config.setString("remote", "origin", "url", "http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git");
repo.create();

My understanding is I should somehow get a Tree object but all attempts failed.

Any examples appriciated.

Thanks.

Resolved using EGit code (org.eclipse.egit.core.op.CloneOperation).

We are working on new CheckoutCommand in the new JGit porcelain API. This will help to make this easier.

Sounds good. Smile

Hope, it will be well documented since it's a very painful to discover JGit... Crying or Very Sad
