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 v1.7.11.6 Release Notes
-===========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.11.5
----------------------
-
- * "ciabot" script (in contrib/) has been updated with extensive
-   documentation.
-
- * "git foo" errored out with "Not a directory" when the user had a
-   non-directory on $PATH, and worse yet it masked an alias "foo" from
-   running.
-
- * When the user exports a non-default IFS without HT, scripts that
-   rely on being able to parse "ls-files -s | while read a b c..."
-   started to fail.  Protect them from such a misconfiguration.
-
- * When the user gives an argument that can be taken as both a
-   revision name and a pathname without disambiguating with "--", we
-   used to give a help message "Use '--' to separate".  The message
-   has been clarified to show where that '--' goes on the command
-   line.
-
- * Documentation for the configuration file format had a confusing
-   example.
-
- * Older parts of the documentation described as if having a regular
-   file in .git/refs/ hierarchy were the only way to have branches and
-   tags, which is not true for quite some time.
-
- * It was generally understood that "--long-option"s to many of our
-   subcommands can be abbreviated to the unique prefix, but it was not
-   easy to find it described for new readers of the documentation set.
-
- * The "--topo-order", "--date-order" (and the lack of either means
-   the default order) options to "rev-list" and "log" family of
-   commands were poorly described in the documentation.
-
- * "git commit --amend" let the user edit the log message and then
-   died when the human-readable committer name was given
-   insufficiently by getpwent(3).
-
- * The exit status code from "git config" was way overspecified while
-   being incorrect.  The implementation has been updated to give the
-   documented status for a case that was documented, and introduce a
-   new code for "all other errors".
-
- * The output from "git diff -B" for a file that ends with an
-   incomplete line did not put "\ No newline..." on a line of its own.
-
- * "git diff" had a confusion between taking data from a path in the
-   working tree and taking data from an object that happens to have
-   name 0{40} recorded in a tree.
-
- * The "--rebase" option to "git pull" can be abbreviated to "-r",
-   but we didn't document it.
-
- * When "git push" triggered the automatic gc on the receiving end, a
-   message from "git prune" that said it was removing cruft leaked to
-   the standard output, breaking the communication protocol.
-
- * The reflog entries left by "git rebase" and "git rebase -i" were
-   inconsistent (the interactive one gave an abbreviated object name).
-
- * "git send-email" did not unquote encoded words that appear on the
-   header correctly, and lost "_" from strings.
-
- * "git stash apply/pop" did not trigger "rerere" upon conflicts
-   unlike other mergy operations.
-
- * "git submodule <cmd> path" did not error out when the path to the
-   submodule was misspelt.
-
- * "git submodule update -f" did not update paths in the working tree
-   that has local changes.
-   (merge 01d4721 sz/submodule-force-update later to maint).
-
- * "gitweb" when used with PATH_INFO failed to notice directories with
-   SP (and other characters that need URL-style quoting) in them.
-
- * Fallback 'getpass' implementation made unportable use of stdio API.
-
- * A utility shell function test_seq has been added as a replacement
-   for the 'seq' utility found on some platforms.
