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 v1.7.9.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.9.1
---------------------
-
- * Bash completion script (in contrib/) did not like a pattern that
-   begins with a dash to be passed to __git_ps1 helper function.
-
- * Adaptation of the bash completion script (in contrib/) for zsh
-   incorrectly listed all subcommands when "git <TAB><TAB>" was given
-   to ask for list of porcelain subcommands.
-
- * The build procedure for profile-directed optimized binary was not
-   working very well.
-
- * Some systems need to explicitly link -lcharset to get locale_charset().
-
- * t5541 ignored user-supplied port number used for HTTP server testing.
-
- * The error message emitted when we see an empty loose object was
-   not phrased correctly.
-
- * The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal
-   input when GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X
-   with GUI askpass helper).
-
- * We failed to give the true terminal width to any subcommand when
-   they are invoked with the pager, i.e. "git -p cmd".
-
- * map_user() was not rewriting its output correctly, which resulted
-   in the user visible symptom that "git blame -e" sometimes showed
-   excess '>' at the end of email addresses.
-
- * "git checkout -b" did not allow switching out of an unborn branch.
-
- * When you have both .../foo and .../foo.git, "git clone .../foo" did not
-   favor the former but the latter.
-
- * "git commit" refused to create a commit when entries added with
-   "add -N" remained in the index, without telling Git what their content
-   in the next commit should be. We should have created the commit without
-   these paths.
-
- * "git diff --stat" said "files", "insertions", and "deletions" even
-   when it is showing one "file", one "insertion" or one "deletion".
-
- * The output from "git diff --stat" for two paths that have the same
-   amount of changes showed graph bars of different length due to the
-   way we handled rounding errors.
-
- * "git grep" did not pay attention to -diff (hence -binary) attribute.
-
- * The transport programs (fetch, push, clone)ignored --no-progress
-   and showed progress when sending their output to a terminal.
-
- * Sometimes error status detected by a check in an earlier phase of
-   "git receive-pack" (the other end of "git push") was lost by later
-   checks, resulting in false indication of success.
-
- * "git rev-list --verify" sometimes skipped verification depending on
-   the phase of the moon, which dates back to 1.7.8.x series.
-
- * Search box in "gitweb" did not accept non-ASCII characters correctly.
-
- * Search interface of "gitweb" did not show multiple matches in the same file
-   correctly.
-
-Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
