This could be implemented as DELETE on IndexLocation of a file: /gitapi/index/file/{projectId}/{pathToFile}.

Comment 2 Tomasz Zarna 2011-06-14 11:50:55 EDT

For now, staging file deletions is done by doing "git add -u {pattern}" in GitIndexHandlerV1.handlePut(...)[1]. This seems to work fine, but there are at least two drawbacks:
* "git add" is called twice[1]
* the file needs to be deleted first and then staged with "git add -u" to be removed from the index. With "git rm" in place, the former can be skipped[2]

[2] see org.eclipse.orion.server.tests.servlets.git.GitStatusTest.testStatusRemoved() for details
