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 1.8.1.3 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v1.8.1.2
---------------------
-
- * The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
-   applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
-   exclude mechanism does.  The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had
-   performance degradations.
-
- * Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible with
-   older versions of bash by using a newer array notation.
-
- * Scripts to test bash completion was inherently flaky as it was
-   affected by whatever random things the user may have on $PATH.
-
- * A fix was added to the build procedure to work around buggy
-   versions of ccache broke the auto-generation of dependencies, which
-   unfortunately is still relevant because some people use ancient
-   distros.
-
- * We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from
-   /etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug
-   lost the "user@" part.
-
- * "git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch,
-   when it is run in a locale outside C (or en).
-
- * Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while
-   being on a detached HEAD, errored out.
-
- * "git cherry-pick" did not replay a root commit to an unborn branch.
-
- * We forgot to close the file descriptor reading from "gpg" output,
-   killing "git log --show-signature" on a long history.
-
- * "git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions
-   of Git.
-
- * Rebasing the history of superproject with change in the submodule
-   has been broken since v1.7.12.
-
- * A failure to push due to non-ff while on an unborn branch
-   dereferenced a NULL pointer when showing an error message.
-
-Also contains various documentation fixes.
