Obtaining Sources

EGit and JGit are currently self hosted in Git. To obtain a copy of each repository:

From the command line:

git clone git://egit.eclipse.org/egit/parallelip-jgit.git jgit
git clone git://egit.eclipse.org/egit/parallelip-egit.git egit

From an installed EGit plugin:

  • File > Import > Git Repository
  • Enter URL
git://egit.eclipse.org/egit/parallelip-jgit.git
  • Import projects
  • File > Import > Git Repository
  • Enter URL
git://egit.eclipse.org/egit/parallelip-egit.git
  • Import projects

Contributing Patches

Review the following style guides:

Currently the project is alpha-testing Gerrit Code Review for Git based patch submission and review. To use the alpha testing instance hosted at eclipse.org:

  • Register a user account
  • Add one or more public SSH keys
  • Execute SSH once to accept the host key (or copy it from the registration web page)
ssh -p 29418 username@egit.eclipse.org
  • Upload your patch from Git to the target project:
git push ssh://username@egit.eclipse.org:29418/egit/parallelip-jgit.git HEAD:refs/for/master

Or, create a new bug and attach a Git formatted patch file, as produced by the `git format-patch` tool.

Gerrit Code Review Cheatsheet

Install the commit-msg hook in your repository:

scp -p -P 29418 username@egit.eclipse.org:hooks/commit-msg .git/hooks

To create a new change:

git push ssh://username@egit.eclipse.org:29418/egit/parallelip-jgit.git HEAD:refs/for/master

To update an existing change with a new commit:

git push ssh://username@egit.eclipse.org:29418/egit/parallelip-jgit.git HEAD:refs/for/master

This works because Gerrit links the new commit to the prior change based upon the Change-Id footer in the commit message. (This is automatically generated by the commit-msg hook you installed above.) If you refuse to use the commit-msg hook, or don't have a Change-Id footer, you should read the Gerrit documentation on change-id lines and replacing changes.
