Someone recently ported git-blame into JGit, and it looks like they did a good job, but it was a straight C->Java port.

That side project produced a lot more results than anything else of late, but the GPL virual clause kicked in and prevented direct inclusion.
Have you asked the author of git-blame (Junio?) if he'd be willing to relicence it to the JGit licences? - Pieter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
