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 v1.7.1 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.7.0
---------------------
-
- * Eric Raymond is the maintainer of updated CIAbot scripts, in contrib/.
-
- * gitk updates.
-
- * Some commands (e.g. svn and http interfaces) that interactively ask
-   for a password can be told to use an external program given via
-   GIT_ASKPASS.
-
- * Conflict markers that lead the common ancestor in diff3-style output
-   now have a label, which hopefully would help third-party tools that
-   expect one.
-
- * Comes with an updated bash-completion script.
-
- * "git am" learned "--keep-cr" option to handle inputs that are
-   a mixture of changes to files with and without CRLF line endings.
-
- * "git cvsimport" learned -R option to leave revision mapping between
-   CVS revisions and resulting git commits.
-
- * "git diff --submodule" notices and describes dirty submodules.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" learned %(symref), %(symref:short) and %(flag)
-   tokens.
-
- * "git hash-object --stdin-paths" can take "--no-filters" option now.
-
- * "git init" can be told to look at init.templatedir configuration
-   variable (obviously that has to come from either /etc/gitconfig or
-   $HOME/.gitconfig).
-
- * "git grep" learned "--no-index" option, to search inside contents that
-   are not managed by git.
-
- * "git grep" learned --color=auto/always/never.
-
- * "git grep" learned to paint filename and line-number in colors.
-
- * "git log -p --first-parent -m" shows one-parent diff for merge
-   commits, instead of showing combined diff.
-
- * "git merge-file" learned to use custom conflict marker size and also
-   to use the "union merge" behaviour.
-
- * "git notes" command has been rewritten in C and learned many commands
-   and features to help you carry notes forward across rebases and amends.
-
- * "git request-pull" identifies the commit the request is relative to in
-   a more readable way.
-
- * "git reset" learned "--keep" option that lets you discard commits
-   near the tip while preserving your local changes in a way similar
-   to how "git checkout branch" does.
-
- * "git status" notices and describes dirty submodules.
-
- * "git svn" should work better when interacting with repositories
-   with CRLF line endings.
-
- * "git imap-send" learned to support CRAM-MD5 authentication.
-
- * "gitweb" installation procedure can use "minified" js/css files
-   better.
-
- * Various documentation updates.
-
-Fixes since v1.7.0
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.7.0.X maintenance series are included in this
-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
- * "git add frotz/nitfol" did not complain when the entire frotz/ directory
-   was ignored.
-
- * "git diff --stat" used "int" to count the size of differences,
-   which could result in overflowing.
-
- * "git rev-list --pretty=oneline" didn't terminate a record with LF for
-   commits without any message.
-
- * "git rev-list --abbrev-commit" defaulted to 40-byte abbreviations, unlike
-   newer tools in the git toolset.
