Now I am wondering where to begin to learn how to do the equivalent of the
following commands via the gjit Java API:

  * git add /file/
  * git rm /file/
  * git mv /file
  * Whatever is the git way to get a specific version of a file

JGit currently has two APIs for working with the index, which will
allow you to add, remove and move data around in the tree. In nbgit I
ended up using GitIndex, which I found easier to figure out. As I
understand it, in the long run you want to use the DirCache API, but
it is still a work in progress.

I am happy to use GitIndex now and switch to DirCache API later when it is ready. Can I please get some pseudo-code fragments on how to do the use cases I identified above?
The javadoc is still not obvious to me.
I am hoping that there aremore docs, samples, tutorials etc. somewhere that
I am missing. Thanks for any help you can provide. Some pointers or code
fragments would be terrific.

I started working on a tutorial for JGit, but didn't get very far so
it mostly consists of stub pages.

 - http://code.google.com/docreader/#p=egit&s=egit&t=JGitTutorial

I have been working on moving the tutorial to maven project before
starting to write the more code heavy topics. This would make it
possible to include code snippets in the tutorial, while also allowing
to compile and test the examples.

The wiki is an awesome resource even in its current state. Thank you.
I would be glad to help contribute improvements to wiki if you give me
write privilege. What I could do is take the help I get from the list and
then update wiki carefully as appropriate if you want me to help.

Thanks again to all of you for helping get me bootstrapped with gjit and git.
