Sasa, if I wanted to create a NotesCommand that shows and adds notes to any id, how would I do that? Who should maintain the NoteMap? Is it meant to be repository wide or kind of a reuse and recycle type of object?

It is a reuse and recycle type of object. Here an usage example:
Repository db = <instance of org.eclipse.jgit.lib.Repository>
Ref notesBranch = db.getRef("refs/notes/commits");
if (notesBranch != null) {
  RevCommit commit = revWalk.parseCommit(notesBranch.getObjectId());
  NoteMap map = NoteMap.read(revWalk.getObjectReader(), commit);
  // now you have an instance of NoteMap and can use it as usual, for example:
  map.getNote(<some commit ID>);
}
