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 v1.5.6.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Futureproof
------------
-
- * "git-shell" accepts requests without a dash between "git" and
-   subcommand name (e.g. "git upload-pack") which the newer client will
-   start to make sometime in the future.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6.1
---------------------
-
-* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in
-  $HOME/.gitconfig did not work well.
-
-* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was
-  tagged with a lightweight tag.
-
-* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status
-  reliably.
-
-* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
-  it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
-  branch and its reflog.  The error message has been improved to suggest
-  pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
-  of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
-
-* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file",
-  but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous.
-
-* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another
-  annotated tag was given to it.
-
-* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a
-  serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for
-  moderately large import.
-
-* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file
-  unnecessarily.
