DiffToolTest: don't assume temp files use java.io.tmpdir
testToolCached compared the temp file path that "git difftool --staged"
creates against System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"). Inside the
Surefire fork those two name different directories. In order:
- the fork starts with -Djava.io.tmpdir=${project.build.directory}
from the pgm.test pom, so java.io.tmpdir is <module>/target at startup
- File.createTempFile captures that startup value and writes under
<module>/target
- Maven is run with -Djava.io.tmpdir=<dir> (as CI does), and Surefire
applies it with System.setProperty after the fork has started
- System.getProperty therefore now returns <dir>, not <module>/target
- the test expects <dir>/<name>_REMOTE_* but the file is under
<module>/target, so the match fails
This surfaced with the Java 17 -> 25 bump: on Java 17
File.createTempFile read java.io.tmpdir live and so agreed with
System.getProperty; since Java 21 it uses the value captured at JVM
startup, so the two diverge once Surefire changes the property after
the fork has started.
Neutralize this JDK behavioral change by making no assumption about
where the temporary directory comes from: match only the file name
pattern, not its directory, so the test harness is JDK-agnostic.

An implementation of the Git version control system in pure Java.
JGit is licensed under the Eclipse Distribution License 1.0 (BSD-3-Clause).
Post questions, comments or discussions to the jgit-dev@eclipse.org mailing list. You need to be subscribed to post.
See the JGit and EGit Contributor Guide.
JGit can be imported straight into Eclipse and built and tested from there. It can be built from the command line using Maven or Bazel. The CI builds use Maven and run on Jenkins.
org.eclipse.jgit
A pure Java library capable of being run standalone, with no additional support libraries. It provides classes to read and write a Git repository and operate on a working directory.
All portions of JGit are covered by the EDL. Absolutely no GPL, LGPL or EPL contributions are accepted within this package.
org.eclipse.jgit.ant
Ant tasks based on JGit.
org.eclipse.jgit.archive
Support for exporting to various archive formats (zip etc).
org.eclipse.jgit.http.apache
Apache httpclient support.
org.eclipse.jgit.http.server
Server for the smart and dumb Git HTTP protocol.
org.eclipse.jgit.lfs
Support for LFS (Large File Storage).
org.eclipse.jgit.lfs.server
Basic LFS server support.
org.eclipse.jgit.packaging
Production of Eclipse features and p2 repository for JGit. See the JGit Wiki on why and how to use this module.
org.eclipse.jgit.pgm
Command-line interface Git commands implemented using JGit (“pgm” stands for program).
org.eclipse.jgit.ssh.apache
Client support for the SSH protocol based on Apache Mina sshd.
org.eclipse.jgit.ssh.apache.agent
Optional support for SSH agents for org.eclipse.jgit.ssh.apache.
org.eclipse.jgit.ui
Simple UI for displaying git log.
To enhance supply chain security and offer users clear insight into project components, Eclipse JGit now generates a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for every release. These are published to the Eclipse Foundation SBOM registry Eclipse Foundation SBOM registry, with access instructions and usage details available in this documentation.
Native symbolic links are supported, provided the file system supports them. For Windows you must use a non-administrator account and have the SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege.
Only the timestamp of the index is used by JGit if the index is dirty.
JGit 6.0 and newer requires at least Java 11. Older versions require at least Java 1.8.
CRLF conversion is performed depending on the core.autocrlf setting, however Git for Windows by default stores that setting during installation in the “system wide” configuration file. If Git is not installed, use the global or repository configuration for the core.autocrlf setting.
The system wide configuration file is located relative to where C Git is installed. Make sure Git can be found via the PATH environment variable. When installing Git for Windows check the “Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt” option. There are other options like Eclipse settings that can be used for pointing out where C Git is installed. Modifying PATH is the recommended option if C Git is installed.
We try to use the same notation of $HOME as C Git does. On Windows this is often not the same value as the user.home system property.
org.eclipse.jgit
Read loose and packed commits, trees, blobs, including deltafied objects.
Read objects from shared repositories
Write loose commits, trees, blobs.
Write blobs from local files or Java InputStreams.
Read blobs as Java InputStreams.
Copy trees to local directory, or local directory to a tree.
Lazily loads objects as necessary.
Read and write .git/config files.
Create a new repository.
Read and write refs, including walking through symrefs.
Read, update and write the Git index.

Object transport
Fetch via ssh, git, http, Amazon S3 and bundles. Push via ssh, git, http, and Amazon S3. JGit does not yet deltify the pushed packs so they may be a lot larger than C Git packs.
