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 v1.7.11.4 Release Notes
-===========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.11.3
----------------------
-
- * "$GIT_DIR/COMMIT_EDITMSG" file that is used to hold the commit log
-   message user edits was not documented.
-
- * The advise() function did not use varargs correctly to format
-   its message.
-
- * When "git am" failed, old timers knew to check .git/rebase-apply/patch
-   to see what went wrong, but we never told the users about it.
-
- * "git commit-tree" learned a more natural "-p <parent> <tree>" order
-   of arguments long time ago, but recently forgot it by mistake.
-
- * "git diff --no-ext-diff" did not output anything for a typechange
-   filepair when GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is in effect.
-
- * In 1.7.9 era, we taught "git rebase" about the raw timestamp format
-   but we did not teach the same trick to "filter-branch", which rolled
-   a similar logic on its own.
-
- * When "git submodule add" clones a submodule repository, it can get
-   confused where to store the resulting submodule repository in the
-   superproject's .git/ directory when there is a symbolic link in the
-   path to the current directory.
-
-Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
