Re: [jgit-dev] listener for porcelain/plumbing commands?

Hi Alex,

OK, thank you for you answers. But with "git add ." the problem remains the same. OK, I will do some performance tests with 1000, 5000 and 10000 files ... I am a little curious about the JGit performance :-)

Regards

If you are creating a single commit for all files then the commit will be atomic. However the time will not be spent in the commit, it will be spent in the add. So you can report based on that instead.
