Why is TreeWalk.forPath(...) returning null

[Farrukh Najmi <farrukh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My "git status" command shows:

# On branch master
# Changed but not updated:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#
#    modified:   xml/minDB/SubmitObjectsRequest_CMSScheme.xml

The file above was committed and then modified. I want to use jgit to 
find the comitted version of that file.

When I do the following code I get a null treeWalk? Why is that? What 
should I specify for path instead?

           String path = "xml/minDB/SubmitObjectsRequest_CMSScheme.xml";
           String versionName = Constants.HEAD;

           Commit commit = repository.mapCommit(versionName);

           if (commit == null) {
               log.trace("Did not find Commit. versionName:" + 
versionName);
           } else {
               ObjectId[] ids = {commit.getTree().getId()};
               TreeWalk treeWalk = TreeWalk.forPath(repository, path, ids);
           }

Thanks.
