The EGit and JGit projects have now split apart. Up until today they were housed in the same repository at repo.or.cz.

As EGit is moving to the Eclipse Foundation umbrella, we wanted to fully split JGit off such that applications trying to make use of JGit can do so without dragging in the EGit specific code.

JGit is now here:
  http://repo.or.cz/w/jgit.git
  git://repo.or.cz/jgit.git
  direct patches to git ML
  same maintainers (myself, Robin Rosenberg)
EGit is still in the same location:
  http://repo.or.cz/w/egit.git
  git://repo.or.cz/egit.git
  direct patches to egit-dev@eclipse.org
  same maintainers (myself, Robin Rosenberg)

FYI, no history was rewritten. Two commits were introduced to create the fork:

  JGit: 9171327f92240a3dbef4a389a2a6378044013803 (rm -rf *egit*)
  EGit: 8f4475f4324599ab704eb1dc3adec92d3b1b85df (rm -rf *jgit*)
Please update your personal forks and clones as necessary.
