[jgit-dev] Why use RevWalk dispose()?

[Martin Fick <mfick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is not clear to me from the jgit docs when one would use the RevWalk 
dispose() method?  The docs explain what it does but that gives me very little 
idea of why I should use it.  Many examples on the net do use it.  The 
AutoCloseable close() method seems to be the normal thing to do after using a 
RevWalk, so why is there a dispose(), and when should it be used?

Thanks,

-Martin
