Eclipse Git Plugin
==================
EGit is an Eclipse plugin for working with Git repositories. It is based
on the JGit library, which is a Git implementation in pure Java.
This package is licensed under the EPL. Please refer to the LICENSE file
for the complete license.
This package is composed of the following major components:
- org.eclipse.egit.core
An Eclipse plugin providing an interface to org.eclipse.jgit
and support routines to allow processing against the Eclipse
workspace and resource APIs, rather than the standard Java
file APIs. It also supplies the team provider implementation.
- org.eclipse.egit.ui
An Eclipse plugin providing the user interface on top of
org.eclipse.egit.core.
- org.eclipse.egit.core.test
Unit tests for org.eclipse.egit.core.
- org.eclipse.egit.ui.test
UI tests for org.eclipse.egit.ui.
- org.eclipse.egit
A plugin for packaging
- org.eclipse.egit-feature
Also packaging. This project is for building an Eclipse "feature"
out of the plugins above.
- org.eclipse.egit.repository
This package is for producing a p2 repository, i.e. a web site
you can point your eclipse at and just upgrade.
There are other components which provide integration with other plugins.
Warnings/Caveats
----------------
- Symbolic links are supported on Java 7 and higher and require that the
optional JGit Java 7 feature is installed. For remaining issues
with symbolic link support see
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=429304.
- CRLF conversion works for some things, but is in general still being
worked on.
Compatibility
-------------
- In general, EGit supports at least the latest two Eclipse releases.
For details, please see https://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/FAQ
- Newer version of EGit may implement new functionality, remove
existing functions and change others without other notice than what
is written in the commit log and source files themselves.
