Hi,

Is there a EGit or JGit API that given a file in Index and a commit id, can return the diff between the file contained in index and the file contained in the commit id?
At this point, I just need to know the added / removed / changed lines and their positions.

Thanks in advance for any insight,

have a look at DiffFormatter and DiffCommand in JGit, also see DiffFormatterTest, DiffCommandTest

and EGit's CreatePatchOperation
