For the record, my email address is on the top right in the sidebar, and the JGit project can be reached through its mailing list at https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/jgit-dev.

Its strange we got an invalid content length. Is it possible the repository is very large, like over 2 GiB, and thus the content length might have wrapped around on us to be negative here? If I recall that section of code, we probably don’t handle anything over 2 GiB in a single push because the setFixedLengthStreamingMode method takes a signed int for its argument.

I can’t find a better way to contact you…

I’m trying to use jgit (v0.5.0) to push a repository to S3 and I get the following. Any ideas how to fix this?:

Counting objects: 8430
Compressing objects: 100% (8430/8430)
Writing objects: 99% (8346/8430)java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid content length

Actually, there is a script in the top level directory: ./make_jgit.sh

Run that script to compile with plain old javac, and avoid Eclipse entirely.

That’s great, however jgit’s installation is completely retarded. Why require eclipse? Anyways, the whole thing is a mess of java nonsense. I’m sure there’s a better way.

These errors seem to be on APIs that were introduced in Java 5.

Check that your projects are pointing to a Java 5 or Java 6 JRE. I suspect they are configured to point to a Java 1.4 JRE. Generally we change this setting in the workspace, and allow the projects to inherit the workspace setting.
