Unable to push file to a remote repository [message #1779293]

I have been following the tutorial getting-started-with-jgit at codeaffine below to create a simple program to push a new file to a remote repository.

The code snippet looks like the ones below. It runs fine without any errors. I can see the file created locally after the file.createNewFile() line. However after the code finishes, the local file disappears, and the remote repo only has a commit message, but not the actual file. I am wondering what I am doing wrong?

String remoteURI = ....;
String localPath = ....;
String localFilePath = localPath + File.seperator + "testfile.txt";
Git git = Git.cloneRepository().setURI( remoteURI ).setDirectory( localPath ).call();
File file = new File(localFilePath);
file.createNewFile();
git.add().addFilePattern( localFilePath ).call();
git.commit().setMessage( "Create readme file" ).call();
git.push().call();
git.close();

I did some more research and made the following changes to the code, but the file that I m trying to push to the remote repo is still not showing up. I m not sure why it doesn't help. Any tips on how to trouble shoot are appreciated.
...
git.commit().setAll(true).setMessage( "Create readme file" ).call();
git.remoteAdd().setName("origin").setUri(new URIish(remoteURI ).call();
git.push().call();
git.close();

Did you check if the commit you created looks ok in your local repository ?

try this:

git.push().setRemote("origin").setRefSpecs(new RefSpec("refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master")).call();

Today I tried multiple times, but I am also not able to push through egit. Is the same issue getting discussed here?
I'm using ssh. I was able to push my earlier patch set through this workspace, but today, I'm getting this error.
"Session.connect: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset".
'Configure Push->Dry-Run' also gives the same error after showing the progress dialog for 'Trying pushing to remote repositories'.
.log file of workspace reports exception as:

I don't think that there is any connection problem from my side. Is something at backend changed?
Thanks,
Aparna

You are correct. It turns out the problem is that the new file was not added to the index, and thus not pushed to the remote repo. The problem was solved by changing the line to add a specific file to all files in the current directory:

git.add().addFilePattern( localFilePath ).call();

to:

git.add().addFilePattern( ".").call();

I'm not sure why you're appending to this thread. Your question essentially boils down to "please help me understanding Git" and that is is completely unrelated. to this thread. In the end, this forum is for helping how best to use the Eclipse tools that support Git; it is not a "Git tutorial" forum.
