JGit still targets Java 5... :-)

We might be able to step up to a minimum of 6 or 7 based on the
minimum version of Java required to run the oldest Eclipse version
EGit supports.

I hope Java 5 will continue to be the target. Our current flagship product only requires Java 5 for headless operation. To give you an idea of how slow some of our clients are to upgrade: Within the last year we received a support request for Java 1.3 compatibility (*gasp*).

Thanks,

Will
