Re: [jgit-dev] how to use the logcommand?

Dear JGit Developers-

 

I've been scouring the web, and I have not been able to find a working example of how to use the log command.

 

I have this code: (the file points to a current git checkout/clone).

 

if I navigate to that directory, and type "git log", I get output that makes sense.

 

when I run this code, it triggers the nohead exception:

no head exception :

org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.NoHeadException: No HEAD exists and no explicit starting revision was specified

 

my questions are:

 

1) how do I get the log information?

2) how do I set switches (like -n for the number of logs) to the log command?

did you look at the jgit test cases for this ? Start looking here:

org.eclipse.jgit.api.CommitAndLogCommandTests
