Description Silenio Quarti CLA 2015-10-21 08:47:54 EDT 
The metadata for git submodules are stored in the parents .git folder in newer versions of git.  We should update JGit to a version that supports this new structure (4.1?).
Comment 1 Silenio Quarti CLA 2015-10-21 09:53:08 EDT 
First set of changes.  Some deprecated API has been removed (release, getBaseCommit).  Some junit tests failed because the return response changed slightly.

Comment 2 Silenio Quarti CLA 2015-10-21 10:10:49 EDT 
JGit 4.1 needs java.lang.AutoClosable which is available only on Java 1.7.  We need to update our BREE.

Comment 3 Silenio Quarti CLA 2015-10-21 10:23:16 EDT 
Changing the target BREE is not enough (build fails):

This has been done.
