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 v1.7.7.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.7
-------------------
-
- * On some BSD systems, adding +s bit on directories is detrimental
-   (it is not necessary on BSD to begin with). "git init --shared"
-   has been updated to take this into account without extra makefile
-   settings on platforms the Makefile knows about.
-
- * After incorrectly written third-party tools store a tag object in
-   HEAD, git diagnosed it as a repository corruption and refused to
-   proceed in order to avoid spreading the damage. We now gracefully
-   recover from such a situation by pretending as if the commit that
-   is pointed at by the tag were in HEAD.
-
- * "git apply --whitespace=error" did not bother to report the exact
-   line number in the patch that introduced new blank lines at the end
-   of the file.
-
- * "git apply --index" did not check corrupted patch.
-
- * "git checkout $tree $directory/" resurrected paths locally removed or
-   modified only in the working tree in $directory/ that did not appear
-   in $directory of the given $tree. They should have been kept intact.
-
- * "git diff $tree $path" used to apply the pathspec at the output stage,
-   reading the whole tree, wasting resources.
-
- * The code to check for updated submodules during a "git fetch" of the
-   superproject had an unnecessary quadratic loop.
-
- * "git fetch" from a large bundle did not enable the progress output.
-
- * When "git fsck --lost-and-found" found that an empty blob object in the
-   object store is unreachable, it incorrectly reported an error after
-   writing the lost blob out successfully.
-
- * "git filter-branch" did not refresh the index before checking that the
-   working tree was clean.
-
- * "git grep $tree" when run with multiple threads had an unsafe access to
-   the object database that should have been protected with mutex.
-
- * The "--ancestry-path" option to "git log" and friends misbehaved in a
-   history with complex criss-cross merges and showed an uninteresting
-   side history as well.
-
- * Test t1304 assumed LOGNAME is always set, which may not be true on
-   some systems.
-
- * Tests with --valgrind failed to find "mergetool" scriptlets.
-
- * "git patch-id" miscomputed the patch-id in a patch that has a line longer
-   than 1kB.
-
- * When an "exec" insn failed after modifying the index and/or the working
-   tree during "rebase -i", we now check and warn that the changes need to
-   be cleaned up.
