NetBeans Git Module [Patched for NetBeans 6.9 Beta compatibility]

NetBeans Git Module

A versioning plugin for working with Git repositories in Netbeans. Presently, it supports the basic tasks of status, diff, commit, and log viewing. Future versions will increase functionality to provide a full set of 'porcelain' commands.

It uses the JGit library for accessing repositories. To ease installation a JGit jar is distributed with the project source in release/modules/ext/.

More information and documentation are available in the form of JavaHelp files which can be found under:

• javahelp/org/nbgit/docs/

They will also be accessible via the Help menu when the plugin has been installed.

To download the latest version, check the current status of development, or report an issue visit the project page at:

Installation

This module is still under development and thus may randomly crash, eat all your memory, etc. So consider yourself warned! Before installing or upgrading make sure you read the release notes and list of known issues. They can be found in:

• javahelp/org/nbgit/docs/news.html

To install from source you need to install the "NetBeans Plugin Development" plugin from the plugins menu. Afterwards clone the repository and use File > Open Project to add it to your project list in Netbeans. Then right click on the new project and select "Install/Reload in Development IDE". You are advised to first test the plugin by "running" the project.
