Hi!

Is there an Example how to use RefsChangedListener or any other Listener?
I want to get notified if a user do a pull on a local repository.

GitListener listener = new GitListener(String name);
Repository localRepo = new FileRepository(gitPath); //gitPath is like C:\Users\frabl_000\SoCoTestGit\socoLocal\socoLocal\.git
localRepo.getListenerList().addRefsChangedListener(listener);

Does the onRefsChanged() only get called if you use the localRepo variable or will it also be called if you modify the repository via command line or EGit?

My Goal:
Get notified if the user pull from origin; reset a HashMap which saves if a file was opened.

Best regards
Frank

AFAIK the listeners are only notified on the instance where they are registered.

In EGit there is a dedicated class which periodically scans the repos if they are changed by others: org.eclipse.egit.ui.Activator.RepositoryChangeScanner

You may have a look there to find inspiration for your task.
