I never would have guessed the sorting was wrong.  But once you
said something, it was immediately obvious to me that JGit f'd up
the tree.

Well, I rewound the repository.  We're rebasing the change onto the
current tip and pushing a fast-forward instead of letting JGit make
a merge commit here.

But JGit still has a bug that causes it to corrupt the tree sorting
here.  I have yet to understand why it produced that bad sort for
this particular merge, let alone propose a patch for it.

Thanks for the help Peff.
