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 v1.6.6.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.6.1
---------------------
-
- * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors,
-   and instead caused the caller to segfault.
-
- * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if
-   they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport
-   correctly with some servers.
-
- * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled
-   time specification and instead assumed "@{now}".
-
- * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive
-   without complaining.
-
- * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is
-   larger than the number of lines in the file.
-
- * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied
-   by the end user.
-
- * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory.
-
- * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in
-   CVSROOT environment.
-
- * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may
-   bust the pack size limit.
-
- * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git
-   directory.
-
- * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion.
-
- * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented.
-
- * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by
-   mistake, which was especially irritating when running "git log --oneline".
-
- * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository.
-
-Other minor documentation updates are included.
