I've created a symlink in my repo (which leads to non-existent file intentionally). When trying to commit it, I get this dialog: Git Command Failed ================== java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/ondra/uw/agreco.cz/git-os/php/fotky_ (No such file or directory) Adding a symlink is supported in Git. I was able to add it using git in shell.
adding a file to index fails, commit is fine: INFO [org.netbeans.modules.git]: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/ondra/NetBeansProjects/git/212986/2/212986/bbb (No such file or directory) java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/ondra/NetBeansProjects/git/212986/2/212986/bbb (No such file or directory) at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:138) at org.eclipse.jgit.treewalk.FileTreeIterator$FileEntry.openInputStream(FileTreeIterator.java:198) at org.eclipse.jgit.treewalk.WorkingTreeIterator.openEntryStream(WorkingTreeIterator.java:500) at org.netbeans.libs.git.jgit.commands.AddCommand.run(AddCommand.java:143) Caused: org.netbeans.libs.git.GitException at org.netbeans.libs.git.jgit.commands.AddCommand.run(AddCommand.java:182) at org.netbeans.libs.git.jgit.commands.GitCommand.execute(GitCommand.java:73) at org.netbeans.libs.git.GitClient.add(GitClient.java:221)
No sure how to fix this reliably, JGit does not fully support symlinks and i am afraid without a change in JGit's code i cannot fix it. Maybe using reflection and methods from JDK7? See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=354367
hopefully fixing with JDK7 java.nio fix: http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/62e8b8af8ee5
