This bug-fix release addresses 3 regressions in Gradle 4.4.

We started shipping JGit 4.5.3.201708160445-r in Gradle 4.4. Some of the non-shaded JGit resources leaked into the gradleApi() dependency and caused problems in some builds. We now shade all of JGit's resources.

Some builds using Kotlin DSL had problems applying the build-scan plugin in Gradle 4.4. We've updated to kotlin-dsl 0.13.2.

Gradle 4.4 contained changes to internal APIs that broke the popular Nebula dependency lock plugin. This release restores binary compatibility for that plugin. Internal APIs are subject to change, although we try to be mindful of the impact of every change in each Gradle release. If particular internal APIs are useful, please open an issue describing your use case, so we can judge where our public APIs are lacking.

For the full list of fixed issues, see the 4.4.1 GitHub milestone.
