JGit authentification with http token

In this guide I will show you how to set up JGIT using a http token

First of all we need to import the maven dependencies:

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.eclipse.jgit</groupId>
   <artifactId>org.eclipse.jgit</artifactId>
   <version>6.8.0.202311291450-r</version>
</dependency>

Than we can clone the repository:

var repository = "https://github.com/eclipse-jgit/jgit.git";
var directory = "./directory";
var token = "ThisIsTheToken

Git.cloneRepository()
	.setURI(repository)
	.setCredentialsProvider(new UsernamePasswordCredentialsProvider("token", token))
	.setDirectory(new File(directory))
	.call();
