JGit today's default uses HttpURLConnection in the core org.eclipse.jgit
bundle. Optionally
apache httpclient 4.5.10 can be used instead via the
org.eclipse.jgit.http.apache bundle.

I am looking at updating the latter to apache httpclient 5.0.2.
According to the migration guide API changes
compared to 4.5.10 aren't huge.

We may consider to replace the default implementation using
HttpURLConnection in org.eclipse.jgit
with the new Java 11 http client. This would require to update the
execution environment for JGit from Java 8 to 11.
