chore(3p/git): Unvendor git and track patches instead r/2903
This was vendored a long time ago under the expectation that keeping
it in sync with cgit would be easier this way, but it has proven not
to be a big issue.

On the other hand, a vendored copy of git is an annoying maintenance
burden. It is much easier to rebase the single (dottime) patch that we
have.

This removes the vendored copy of git and instead passes the git
source code to cgit via `pkgs.srcOnly`, which includes the applied
patch so that cgit can continue rendering dottime.

-GIT v1.5.4.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4.4
---------------------
-
- * "git fetch there" when the URL information came from the Cogito style
-   branches/there file did not update refs/heads/there (regression in
-   1.5.4).
-
- * Bogus refspec configuration such as "remote.there.fetch = =" were not
-   detected as errors (regression in 1.5.4).
-
- * You couldn't specify a custom editor whose path contains a whitespace
-   via GIT_EDITOR (and core.editor).
-
- * The subdirectory filter to "git filter-branch" mishandled a history
-   where the subdirectory becomes empty and then later becomes non-empty.
-
- * "git shortlog" gave an empty line if the original commit message was
-   malformed (e.g. a botched import from foreign SCM).  Now it finds the
-   first non-empty line and uses it for better information.
-
- * When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error
-   from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper
-   error checking.
-
- * After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with
-   "git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the
-   correct commit.
-
- * Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did
-   not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original.
-
- * "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with
-   different filemodes correctly as a conflict.
-
- * "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use.
-
- * "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch".
-
- * "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header
-   when the user used format.header configuration.
-
- * "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent
-   with how "rev^" worked.  Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it
-   also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0"
-   (i.e. it has to be a commit).
-
- * "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN"
-   format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments.
-
- * "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made
-   "rebase --continue" impossible.
-
-As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
