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 v1.7.6.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.6.3
---------------------
-
- * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file
-   whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed.
-
- * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly.
-
- * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that
-   began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make
-   the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/".
-
- * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself
-   is not a directory but is a pointer to one.
-
- * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another
-   object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates
-   file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository.
-
- * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the
-   state of the working tree files.
-
- * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors
-   incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec.
-
- * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read
-   from the standard input.
-
-Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
