Test Git repo and java unit test showing a bug.

I found the case when the org.eclipse.jgit.lib.Repository#resolve() methods returns invalid objectId(s).

Attached you can find a small Git repository and a maven project with the unit test which demonstrates invalid behavior.
Note that in the test repo I have a branch named '0.1-0' and I want to retrieve the content of a file from this branch under the admin/appdemo/Main.tpl path.
It means that somewhere in my code I'm calling:

org.eclipse.jgit.lib.Repository#resolve("refs/heads/0.1-0^{tree}:admin/appdemo/Main.tpl");

which returns pointer to a tree object instead of a blob with Main.tpl content!!

When using other Git clients (Eclipse Git plugin or command line git-scm) I can retrieve the content of all files without any problems.

What is more, when I'm using a bit different API the problem disappears (there are two methods in my Java class which are supposed to do exactly the same thing but are using slightly different API: RepositoryManager#getResourceAsString() and RepositoryManager#getResourceAsString2()).

Could you take a look at that issue please?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel Pacak
