It turns out that this affects the package more deeply than that.
For example:

$ jgit log
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot set value to a final field 'org.eclipse.jgit.pgm.RevWalkTextBuil
tin.commits'.

This means the jgit command cannot be used at all, and that's the only
command provided by this package.
