Do not let PathFilter.create("a/b") match 'a' unless 'a' is a subtree
PathFilter and PathFilterGroup form JGit's implementation of git's
path-limiting feature in commands like log and diff. To save time
when traversing trees, a path specification
foo/bar/baz
tells the tree walker not to traverse unrelated trees like qux/. It
does that by returning false from include when the tree walker is
visiting qux and true when it is visiting foo.
Unfortunately that test was implemented to be slightly over-eager: it
doesn't only return true when asked whether to visit a subtree "foo"

Fix push with jgit pgm failing with "unauthorized"
Pushing with JGit commandline to e.g. Github failed with "unauthorized"
since HttpUrlConnection calls the configured authenticator implicitly.
The problem is that during a push two requests are sent to the server,
first a GET and then a POST (containing the pack data). The first GET
request sent anonymously is rejected with 401 (unauthorized). When an
Authenticator is installed the java.net classes will use the
Authenticator to ask the user for credentials and retry the request.
But this happens under the hood and JGit level code doesn't see that
this happens.
The next request is the POST but since JGit thinks the first GET request
went through anonymously it doesn't add authentication headers to the
POST request. This POST of course also fails with 401 but since this
request contains a lot of body-data streamed from JGit (the pack file!)
the java.net classes can't simply retry the request with authorization
headers. The whole process fails.
Fix this by using Apache httpclient which doesn't use Authenticator to
retrieve credentials. Instead initialize TransportCommand to use the
default credential provider if no other credentials provider was set
explicitly. org.eclipse.jgit.pgm.Main sets this default for the JGit
command line client.

Use runtime retention for Nullable annotation
JGit's Nullable type was added[1] in the hope of being able to add
nullness annotations that (a) do not preclude building and running
with Java 7 and (b) could be shared by Gerrit, which uses a custom
Nullable type for other reasons[2]. Sharing a type is useful because
Eclipse's null analysis is only able to use one Nullable type at a
time in a given workspace (so for this analysis to function in a
workspace used to develop Gerrit, JGit and Gerrit would need to use
the same Nullable type).
The new Nullable type has CLASS instead of RUNTIME retention because
there wasn't any obvious use for the annotation at run time.
Gerrit uses the Nullable annotation to communicate with Guice. Guice
injection happens at runtime, so it needs to be able to read the
@Nullable annotations at run time[3]. Otherwise Guice produces
provisioning errors, such as
3) null returned by binding at com.google.gerrit.lucene.LuceneChangeIndex$Factory.create()
but parameter 7 of com.google.gerrit.lucene.LuceneChangeIndex.<init>() is not @Nullable
Switch to RUNTIME retention to avoid this.
While at it, update the javadoc to explain more clearly how this
annotation relates to other Nullable types[4]. This should make it
clearer why JGit needed another Nullable type:
A. Avoiding dependency on Java 8
B. RUNTIME retention to allow Guice to read the annotation at run time
C. Named Nullable so Guice can recognize the annotation
D. Not an addition to Java EE's javax.annotation package, to avoid
the split-package problem[2] that prevents the annotation from
being readable at run time when loaded from an OSGi container

Delay locating .gitattributes until requested
Instead of checking every entry for .gitattributes only look for the
entry on request by TreeWalk. This avoids impacting uses like RevWalk
filtering history.
When the attrs is requested skip to the start of the tree and look for
.gitattributes until either it is found, or it is impossible to be
present. Due to the sorting rules of tree entries .gitattributes
should be among the first or second entries in the tree so very few
entries will need to be considered.
Waiting to find the .gitattributes file by native ordering may miss
attrs for files like .config, which sorts before .gitattributes.
Starting from the front of the tree on demand ensures the attributes
are parsed as early as necessary to process any entry in the tree.
Due to TreeWalk recursively processing up the tree of iterators we
cannot just reset the current CanonicalTreeParser to the start as
parent parsers share the same path buffer as their children.
Resetting a parent to look for .gitattributes may overwrite path
buffer data used by a child iterator. Work around this by building a
