Thanks Shawn.. I did look at the jGit list and I will post there as well.

>>But if you want to avoid using the working directory
Not sure what this means.. perhaps I have to read up some more...

I got as far as what you have suggested with the Git object in the 
org.eclipse.jgit.api jar.

Where I got stumped was the specification of the userid/pwd/repo path
parameters that tells git when I init it (as I run on an aws machine with no
.git directory initially) to setup shop in a temp working directory that I
specify in the init. 

I was hoping to have an init command that I could pass a valid git repo url,
a user name and pwd and local fileDir so that a .git would be created and
then I can call checkout to get the part of the tree that I am interested
in.

If you have any insight.. I'd appreciate your comments.

thanks again.
S
