Host git repositories on HBase: https://github.com/trendmicro/jgit-hbase

Thanks to Shawn Pierce for jgit.storage.dht (http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,2295)!

Only thing I'd advise is wait for the commit message on org.apache.hadoop.hbase.jgit to change from "Initial implementation" to something else. Should happen in a day or so. I refactored on patch 2 but won't get to trying out hosting a repo until tonight maybe.

While my main interest here is a live continuous HBase application test for finding problems and regressions, I'm sure you can imagine possibilities for meaningful table map-reduce processing over Git structures, where Git can be used for constructing history graphs over arbitrary change sets of anything.

Best regards,

Shawn Pierce is now maintaining his own version of a HBase backed jgit.storage.dht.

    https://github.com/spearce/jgit_hbase/

This works with the latest version of the jgit.storage.dht patch (currently v11):
