Hi Matthias, I will definitely investigate. If it’s in Java, it’s likely going to work, although we are currently restricted to Java 1.8. I assumed some port was required because no one talked about it with me. If not, that’s awesome. Thanks, Randall From: Matthias Sohn <matthias.sohn@xxxxxxxxx>

Subject: Re: [jgit-dev] [egit-dev] Bug 520927: moving away from JSch Thomas,
Apache Mina SSHD is not available on the HPE NonStop platform to my
knowledge. My team is generally responsible for ports, and I would have
heard about this one being done. So it's not a capability issue between the
two, it is an availability issue.
Why is Mina SSHD not available on HPE NonStop ? It's implemented in Java. And if this platform doesn't support Java then JGit is useless anyway. From a security point of view relying on a non maintained (and unmaintainable) security relevant library like jsch is not a good idea. Since there is no known repository with the jsch source code history and there are no automated tests it's also pretty unlikely that anyone will step up and take over maintenance Hence I think we should completely get rid of jsch.
