RmCommand (JGit - Core 6.1.0.202203080745-r API)

java.lang.Object
- org.eclipse.jgit.api.GitCommand<DirCache>
- - org.eclipse.jgit.api.RmCommand

All Implemented Interfaces:

Callable<DirCache>
```
public class RmCommand
extends GitCommand<DirCache>
```
Remove files from the index and working directory (or optionally only from the index).
It has setters for all supported options and arguments of this command and a call() method to finally execute the command. Each instance of this class should only be used for one invocation of the command (means: one call to call()).
Examples (git is a Git instance):
Remove file "test.txt" from both index and working directory:
```
 git.rm().addFilepattern("test.txt").call();
 
```
Remove file "new.txt" from the index (but not from the working directory):
```
 git.rm().setCached(true).addFilepattern("new.txt").call();
 
```
