We need a clone and a branch to get started on this exercise, hence we will clone jgit again to the chapter7.5 folder, as follows:
$ git clone https://git.eclipse.org/r/jgit/jgit chapter7.5 Cloning into 'chapter7.5'... remote: Counting objects: 2170, done remote: Finding sources: 100% (364/364) remote: Total 45977 (delta 87), reused 45906 (delta 87) Receiving objects: 100% (45977/45977), 10.60 MiB | 1.74 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (24651/24651), done. Checking connectivity... done. Checking out files: 100% (1577/1577), done.
Check out a local descriptioInCommit branch that tracks the origin/stable-3.2 branch:
$ cd chapter7.5 $ git checkout -b descriptioInCommit --track origin/stable-3.2 Branch descriptioInCommit set ...
