JGit with database storage [message #826988]

Hello all,

I saw that there is a database class that appears to allow JGit to use a database store instead of a filesystem store. I would really like to implement this. I've done some searching and not come up with much (not exhaustive, so apologies if this is a frequent question).

Are there any resources beyond the javadoc explaining how this would be accomplished? I would like to create a web application that used JGit to store and version a tree structure of text files (basically just like a tree of java classes and packages), but I'd rather keep this store in a database than directly on the filesystem.

Are there any tutorials, pre-existing JDBC implementations, or other documents?

Thanks - Andrew

I remember that Philipp did a proof of concept using JDBC and a
relational database when the DHT API was designed.
This prototype is here https://github.com/philippthun/jgit_jdbc/
