I've asked for this before. Please consider defining a "git API" that allows for swapping in different client implementations. We've seen from the Subversion plugin that some people would prefer the ability to use the native client, while others are OK with SvnKit.

I will try to find some time to implement a few methods as well! Oh, in case you never heard of it, this is a nice library that helps a lot in some jgit scenarios: https://github.com/kevinsawicki/gitective It helped me in some occasions :) Cya!

Using git cli require to run a system process for all git operations. This is fragile : process can hang, plugin has to parse console output, and can then be broken by any outdated git installation and/or new git cli release that could change output format, option names, etc JGit is not as simple to use as launching a command, but will ensure the git-plugin isn't system-dependent and more stable. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
