Introduction

This module adds support for working with the Git version control system. It is based on the NetBeans Mercurial module and uses the JGit library to interact with Git repositories. Because the module is Java code all the way, it works cross-platform modulo platform specific differences, such as file system behavior.

Note: This module is still experimental and may randomly crash, eat all your memory, or otherwise mess up your NetBeans IDE.



What's new in this version

New features:

  • Initial support for cloning; Only git:// protocol is supported for now. (issue 48)
  • Graph visualization of repository history. (issue 1)

  • Track changes to and refresh internally cached .gitignore files. (issue 3)
  • Gracefully handle repositories containing submodules. (issue 23, issue 33, issue 34)
  • Fix revert when using folder/project selection. (issue 51)

Couldn't install on Netbeans 6.7.1

Hi, IIRC the plugin worked fine with Netbeans 6.5. But now, when trying to install it on Netbeans 6.7.1, i get the following error: Warning - could not install some modules: nbgit - The module named org.netbeans.modules.editor.deprecated.pre61completion/0 was needed and not found.

It would be great if the plugin could be adapted to use it with 6.7.1, too!
