Description Thomas Wolf CLA 2021-01-23 11:39:39 EST 
JGit builds have started failing recently. It appears they pick up a Java 11 JDK now. But we need a JDK 1.8.

Do we have to change something in our builds? pom.xml specifies 1.8 as compiler, source & target version.

See comments at https://git.eclipse.org/r/c/jgit/jgit/+/175247 .

P.S.: I haven't tried EGit builds yet. But EGit probably also needs a JDK 1.8.

This might have been caused by this PR

Comment 2 Thomas Wolf CLA 2021-01-23 12:28:25 EST 
In that PR Mikael actually gave steps to specify a JDK 8 for the build. I've just updated the jgit.gerrit build accordingly. If https://ci.eclipse.org/jgit/job/stable/job/jgit.gerrit-pipeline/4330/console succeeds, we can close this and adapt all our other jobs likewise.
Comment 3 Thomas Wolf CLA 2021-01-23 13:55:41 EST 
That worked. Also adapted jgit.stable and jgit builds.
