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 1.7.12.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.12.2
----------------------
-
- * "git am" mishandled a patch attached as application/octet-stream
-   (e.g. not text/*); Content-Transfer-Encoding (e.g. base64) was not
-   honored correctly.
-
- * It was unclear in the documentation for "git blame" that it is
-   unnecessary for users to use the "--follow" option.
-
- * A repository created with "git clone --single" had its fetch
-   refspecs set up just like a clone without "--single", leading the
-   subsequent "git fetch" to slurp all the other branches, defeating
-   the whole point of specifying "only this branch".
-
- * "git fetch" over http had an old workaround for an unlikely server
-   misconfiguration; it turns out that this hurts debuggability of the
-   configuration in general, and has been reverted.
-
- * "git fetch" over http advertised that it supports "deflate", which
-   is much less common, and did not advertise the more common "gzip" on
-   its Accept-Encoding header.
-
- * "git receive-pack" (the counterpart to "git push") did not give
-   progress output while processing objects it received to the user
-   when run over the smart-http protocol.
-
- * "git status" honored the ignore=dirty settings in .gitmodules but
-   "git commit" didn't.
-
-Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
