fix: Git discarding null properties (#25068)
## Description
> The git discard flow only discards the properties which were set in
the last commit. If the properties are not present in the application
json in the last commit and the user changes these properties to some
value and after that choose to discard, the changes are not overwritten
to null values.

> This happens because git uses a function `copyNestedNonNullProperties`
to overwrite the values to the last commit ones which ignores the
properties if those are null.

> This PR explicitly sets the null properties in the target json, so
that when the user discards the initially set null properties, these get
discarded.
