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 v1.7.8.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.8
-------------------
-
- * In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
-   recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
-
- * "git apply --check" did not error out when given an empty input
-   without any patch.
-
- * "git archive" mistakenly allowed remote clients to ask for commits
-   that are not at the tip of any ref.
-
- * "git checkout" and "git merge" treated in-tree .gitignore and exclude
-   file in $GIT_DIR/info/ directory inconsistently when deciding which
-   untracked files are ignored and expendable.
-
- * LF-to-CRLF streaming filter used when checking out a large-ish blob
-   fell into an infinite loop with a rare input.
-
- * The function header pattern for files with "diff=cpp" attribute did
-   not consider "type *funcname(type param1,..." as the beginning of a
-   function.
-
- * The error message from "git diff" and "git status" when they fail
-   to inspect changes in submodules did not report which submodule they
-   had trouble with.
-
- * After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
-   output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
-
- * "git pack-objects" avoids creating cyclic dependencies among deltas
-   when seeing a broken packfile that records the same object in both
-   the deflated form and as a delta.
-
-Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
