Now that Bazel build for JGit is fully implemented, we can document
the process of routing the JGit dependency to the development tree
instead of consuming it from Central or ~/.m2 local repository:
1. Activate local jgit repository in WORKSPACE file:
local_repository(
name = "jgit",
path = "/home/<user>/projects/jgit",
)
2. Uncomment alias to jgit repository in lib/jgit/**/BUILD files.
It shouldn't be needed and is tracked under this issue upstream: [1]:
alias(
name = "jgit-alias",
actual = select({
"@//lib:jgit-dev": "@jgit//org.eclipse.jgit:jgit",
"//conditions:default": "@jgit_lib//jar",
}),
visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)
Test plan:
Update local JGit tree, run tests and verify that local JGit tree
modifications are relfected in gerrit build:
$ bazel build --define jgit-dev=1 headless
To consume JGit from Central, do not pass jgit-dev=1:
$ bazel test ...
