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 v1.8.4 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Backward compatibility notes (for Git 2.0)
-------------------------------------------
-
-When "git push [$there]" does not say what to push, we have used the
-traditional "matching" semantics so far (all your branches were sent
-to the remote as long as there already are branches of the same name
-over there).  In Git 2.0, the default will change to the "simple"
-semantics that pushes:
-
- - only the current branch to the branch with the same name, and only
-   when the current branch is set to integrate with that remote
-   branch, if you are pushing to the same remote as you fetch from; or
-
- - only the current branch to the branch with the same name, if you
-   are pushing to a remote that is not where you usually fetch from.
-
-Use the user preference configuration variable "push.default" to
-change this.  If you are an old-timer who is used to the "matching"
-semantics, you can set the variable to "matching" to keep the
-traditional behaviour.  If you want to live in the future early, you
-can set it to "simple" today without waiting for Git 2.0.
-
-When "git add -u" (and "git add -A") is run inside a subdirectory and
-does not specify which paths to add on the command line, it
-will operate on the entire tree in Git 2.0 for consistency
-with "git commit -a" and other commands.  There will be no
-mechanism to make plain "git add -u" behave like "git add -u .".
-Current users of "git add -u" (without a pathspec) should start
-training their fingers to explicitly say "git add -u ."
-before Git 2.0 comes.  A warning is issued when these commands are
-run without a pathspec and when you have local changes outside the
-current directory, because the behaviour in Git 2.0 will be different
-from today's version in such a situation.
-
-In Git 2.0, "git add <path>" will behave as "git add -A <path>", so
-that "git add dir/" will notice paths you removed from the directory
-and record the removal.  Versions before Git 2.0, including this
-release, will keep ignoring removals, but the users who rely on this
-behaviour are encouraged to start using "git add --ignore-removal <path>"
-now before 2.0 is released.
-
-
-Updates since v1.8.3
---------------------
-
-Foreign interfaces, subsystems and ports.
-
- * Cygwin port has been updated for more recent Cygwin 1.7.
-
- * "git rebase -i" now honors --strategy and -X options.
-
- * Git-gui has been updated to its 0.18.0 version.
-
- * MediaWiki remote helper (in contrib/) has been updated to use the
-   credential helper interface from Git.pm.
-
- * Update build for Cygwin 1.[57].  Torsten Bögershausen reports that
-   this is fine with Cygwin 1.7 (cf. <51A606A0.5060101@web.de>) so let's try moving it
-   ahead.
-
- * The credential helper to talk to keychain on OS X (in contrib/) has
-   been updated to kick in not just when talking http/https but also
-   imap(s) and smtp.
-
- * Remote transport helper has been updated to report errors and
-   maintain ref hierarchy used to keep track of its own state better.
-
- * With "export" remote-helper protocol, (1) a push that tries to
-   update a remote ref whose name is different from the pushing side
-   does not work yet, and (2) the helper may not know how to do
-   --dry-run; these problematic cases are disabled for now.
-
- * git-remote-hg/bzr (in contrib/) updates.
-
- * git-remote-mw (in contrib/) hints users to check the certificate,
-   when https:// connection failed.
-
- * git-remote-mw (in contrib/) adds a command to allow previewing the
-   contents locally before pushing it out, when working with a
-   MediaWiki remote.
-
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * Sample "post-receive-email" hook script got an enhanced replacement
-   "multimail" (in contrib/).
-
- * Also in contrib/ is a new "contacts" script that runs "git blame"
-   to find out the people who may be interested in a set of changes.
-
- * "git clean" command learned an interactive mode.
-
- * The "--head" option to "git show-ref" was only to add "HEAD" to the
-   list of candidate refs to be filtered by the usual rules
-   (e.g. "--heads" that only show refs under refs/heads).  The meaning
-   of the option has been changed to always show "HEAD" regardless of
-   what filtering will be applied to any other ref.
-
-   This is a backward incompatible change and might cause breakages to
-   people's existing scripts.
-
- * "git show -s" was less discoverable than it should have been.  It
-   now has a natural synonym "git show --no-patch".
-
- * "git check-mailmap" is a new command that lets you map usernames
-   and e-mail addresses through the mailmap mechanism, just like many
-   built-in commands do.
-
- * "git name-rev" learned to name an annotated tag object back to its
-   tagname; "git name-rev $(git rev-parse v1.0.0)" gives "tags/v1.0.0",
-   for example.
-
- * "git cat-file --batch-check=<format>" is added, primarily to allow
-   on-disk footprint of objects in packfiles (often they are a lot
-   smaller than their true size, when expressed as deltas) to be
-   reported.
-
- * "git rebase [-i]" used to leave just "rebase" as its reflog messages
-   for some operations. They have been reworded to be more informative.
-
- * In addition to the choice from "rebase, merge, or checkout-detach",
-   "submodule update" can allow a custom command to be used in to
-   update the working tree of submodules via the "submodule.*.update"
-   configuration variable.
-
- * "git submodule update" can optionally clone the submodule
-   repositories shallowly.
-
- * "git format-patch" learned "--from[=whom]" option, which sets the
-   "From: " header to the specified person (or the person who runs the
-   command, if "=whom" part is missing) and move the original author
-   information to an in-body From: header as necessary.
-
- * The configuration variable "merge.ff" was cleary a tri-state to
-   choose one from "favor fast-forward when possible", "always create
-   a merge even when the history could fast-forward" and "do not
-   create any merge, only update when the history fast-forwards", but
-   the command line parser did not implement the usual convention of
-   "last one wins, and command line overrides the configuration"
-   correctly.
-
- * "gitweb" learned to optionally place extra links that point at the
-   levels higher than the Gitweb pages themselves in the breadcrumbs,
-   so that it can be used as part of a larger installation.
-
- * "git log --format=" now honors i18n.logoutputencoding configuration
-   variable.
-
- * The "push.default=simple" mode of "git push" has been updated to
-   behave like "current" without requiring a remote tracking
-   information, when you push to a remote that is different from where
-   you fetch from (i.e. a triangular workflow).
-
- * Having multiple "fixup!" on a line in the rebase instruction sheet
-   did not work very well with "git rebase -i --autosquash".
-
- * "git log" learned the "--author-date-order" option, with which the
-   output is topologically sorted and commits in parallel histories
-   are shown intermixed together based on the author timestamp.
-
- * Various subcommands of "git submodule" refused to run from anywhere
-   other than the top of the working tree of the superproject, but
-   they have been taught to let you run from a subdirectory.
-
- * "git diff" learned a mode that ignores hunks whose change consists
-   only of additions and removals of blank lines, which is the same as
-   "diff -B" (ignore blank lines) of GNU diff.
-
- * "git rm" gives a single message followed by list of paths to report
-   multiple paths that cannot be removed.
-
- * "git rebase" can be told with ":/look for this string" syntax commits
-   to replay the changes onto and where the work to be replayed begins.
-
- * Many tutorials teach users to set "color.ui" to "auto" as the first
-   thing after you set "user.name/email" to introduce yourselves to
-   Git.  Now the variable defaults to "auto".
-
- * On Cygwin, "cygstart" is now recognised as a possible way to start
-   a web browser (used in "help -w" and "instaweb" among others).
-
- * "git status" learned status.branch and status.short configuration
-   variables to use --branch and --short options by default (override
-   with --no-branch and --no-short options from the command line).
-
- * "git cmd <name>", when <name> happens to be a 40-hex string,
-   directly uses the 40-hex string as an object name, even if a ref
-   "refs/<some hierarchy>/<name>" exists.  This disambiguation order
-   is unlikely to change, but we should warn about the ambiguity just
-   like we warn when more than one refs/ hierarchies share the same
-   name.
-
- * "git rebase" learned "--[no-]autostash" option to save local
-   changes instead of refusing to run (to which people's normal
-   response was to stash them and re-run).  This introduced a corner
-   case breakage to "git am --abort" but it has been fixed.
-
- * "check-ignore" (new feature since 1.8.2) has been updated to work
-   more like "check-attr" over bidi-pipes.
-
- * "git describe" learned "--first-parent" option to limit its closest
-   tagged commit search to the first-parent chain.
-
- * "git merge foo" that might have meant "git merge origin/foo" is
-   diagnosed with a more informative error message.
-
- * "git log -L<line>,<range>:<filename>" has been added.  This may
-   still have leaks and rough edges, though.
-
- * We used the approxidate() parser for "--expire=<timestamp>" options
-   of various commands, but it is better to treat --expire=all and
-   --expire=now a bit more specially than using the current timestamp.
-   "git gc" and "git reflog" have been updated with a new parsing
-   function for expiry dates.
-
- * Updates to completion (both bash and zsh) helpers.
-
- * The behaviour of the "--chain-reply-to" option of "git send-email"
-   have changed at 1.7.0, and we added a warning/advice message to
-   help users adjust to the new behaviour back then, but we kept it
-   around for too long.  The message has finally been removed.
-
- * "git fetch origin master" unlike "git fetch origin" or "git fetch"
-   did not update "refs/remotes/origin/master"; this was an early
-   design decision to keep the update of remote tracking branches
-   predictable, but in practice it turns out that people find it more
-   convenient to opportunistically update them whenever we have a
-   chance, and we have been updating them when we run "git push" which
-   already breaks the original "predictability" anyway.
-
- * The configuration variable core.checkstat was advertised in the
-   documentation but the code expected core.statinfo instead.
-   For now, we accept both core.checkstat and core.statinfo, but the
-   latter will be removed in the longer term.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, etc.
-
- * On Cygwin, we used to use our own lstat(2) emulation that is
-   allegedly faster than the platform one in codepaths where some of
-   the information it returns did not matter, but it started to bite
-   us in a few codepaths where the trick it uses to cheat does show
-   breakages. This emulation has been removed and we use the native
-   lstat(2) emulation supplied by Cygwin now.
-
- * The function attributes extensions are used to catch mistakes in
-   use of our own variadic functions that use NULL sentinel at the end
-   (i.e. like execl(3)) and format strings (i.e. like printf(3)).
-
- * The code to allow configuration data to be read from in-tree blob
-   objects is in.  This may help working in a bare repository and
-   submodule updates.
-
- * Fetching between repositories with many refs employed O(n^2)
-   algorithm to match up the common objects, which has been corrected.
-
- * The original way to specify remote repository using .git/branches/
-   used to have a nifty feature.  The code to support the feature was
-   still in a function but the caller was changed not to call it 5
-   years ago, breaking that feature and leaving the supporting code
-   unreachable.  The dead code has been removed.
-
- * "git pack-refs" that races with new ref creation or deletion have
-   been susceptible to lossage of refs under right conditions, which
-   has been tightened up.
-
- * We read loose and packed references in two steps, but after
-   deciding to read a loose ref but before actually opening it to read
-   it, another process racing with us can unlink it, which would cause
-   us to barf.  The codepath has been updated to retry when such a
-   race is detected, instead of outright failing.
-
- * Uses of the platform fnmatch(3) function (many places in the code,
-   matching pathspec, .gitignore and .gitattributes to name a few)
-   have been replaced with wildmatch, allowing "foo/**/bar" that would
-   match foo/bar, foo/a/bar, foo/a/b/bar, etc.
-
- * Memory ownership and lifetime rules for what for-each-ref feeds to
-   its callbacks have been clarified (in short, "you do not own it, so
-   make a copy if you want to keep it").
-
- * The revision traversal logic to improve culling of irrelevant
-   parents while traversing a mergy history has been updated.
-
- * Some leaks in unpack-trees (used in merge, cherry-pick and other
-   codepaths) have been plugged.
-
- * The codepath to read from marks files in fast-import/export did not
-   have to accept anything but 40-hex representation of the object
-   name.  Further, fast-export did not need full in-core object
-   representation to have parsed wen reading from them.  These
-   codepaths have been optimized by taking advantage of these access
-   patterns.
-
- * Object lookup logic, when the object hashtable starts to become
-   crowded, has been optimized.
-
- * When TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY setting is used, it was handled somewhat
-   inconsistently between the test framework and t/Makefile, and logic
-   to summarize the results looked at a wrong place.
-
- * "git clone" uses a lighter-weight implementation when making sure
-   that the history behind refs are complete.
-
- * Many warnings from sparse source checker in compat/ area has been
-   squelched.
-
- * The code to reading and updating packed-refs file has been updated,
-   correcting corner case bugs.
-
-
-Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
-
-
-Fixes since v1.8.3
-------------------
-
-Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.8.3 in the maintenance
-track are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
-details).
-
- * Newer Net::SMTP::SSL module does not want the user programs to use
-   the default behaviour to let server certificate go without
-   verification, so by default enable the verification with a
-   mechanism to turn it off if needed.
-   (merge 35035bb rr/send-email-ssl-verify later to maint).
-
- * When "git" is spawned in such a way that any of the low 3 file
-   descriptors is closed, our first open() may yield file descriptor 2,
-   and writing error message to it would screw things up in a big way.
-   (merge a11c396 tr/protect-low-3-fds later to maint).
-
- * The mailmap mechanism unnecessarily downcased the e-mail addresses
-   in the output, and also ignored the human name when it is a single
-   character name.
-   (merge bd23794 jc/mailmap-case-insensitivity later to maint).
-
- * In two places we did not check return value (expected to be a file
-   descriptor) correctly.
-   (merge a77f106 tr/fd-gotcha-fixes later to maint).
-
- * Logic to auto-detect character encodings in the commit log message
-   did not reject overlong and invalid UTF-8 characters.
-   (merge 81050ac bc/commit-invalid-utf8 later to maint).
-
- * Pass port number as a separate argument when "send-email" initializes
-   Net::SMTP, instead of as a part of the hostname, i.e. host:port.
-   This allows GSSAPI codepath to match with the hostname given.
-   (merge 1a741bf bc/send-email-use-port-as-separate-param later to maint).
-
- * "git diff" refused to even show difference when core.safecrlf is
-   set to true (i.e. error out) and there are offending lines in the
-   working tree files.
-   (merge 5430bb2 jc/maint-diff-core-safecrlf later to maint).
-
- * A test that should have failed but didn't revealed a bug that needs
-   to be corrected.
-   (merge 94d75d1 jc/t1512-fix later to maint).
-
- * An overlong path to a .git directory may have overflown the
-   temporary path buffer used to create a name for lockfiles.
-   (merge 2fbd4f9 mh/maint-lockfile-overflow later to maint).
-
- * Invocations of "git checkout" used internally by "git rebase" were
-   counted as "checkout", and affected later "git checkout -" to the
-   the user to an unexpected place.
-   (merge 3bed291 rr/rebase-checkout-reflog later to maint).
-
- * The configuration variable column.ui was poorly documented.
-   (merge 5e62cc1 rr/column-doc later to maint).
-
- * "git name-rev --refs=tags/v*" were forbidden, which was a bit
-   inconvenient (you had to give a pattern to match refs fully, like
-   --refs=refs/tags/v*).
-   (merge 98c5c4a nk/name-rev-abbreviated-refs later to maint).
-
- * "git apply" parsed patches that add new files, generated by
-   programs other than Git, incorrectly.  This is an old breakage in
-   v1.7.11 and will need to be merged down to the maintenance tracks.
-
- * Older cURL wanted piece of memory we call it with to be stable, but
-   we updated the auth material after handing it to a call.
-
- * "git pull" into nothing trashed "local changes" that were in the
-   index, and this avoids it.
-
- * Many "git submodule" operations do not work on a submodule at a
-   path whose name is not in ASCII.
-
- * "cherry-pick" had a small leak in an error codepath.
-
- * Logic used by git-send-email to suppress cc mishandled names like
-   "A U. Thor" <author@example.xz>, where the human readable part
-   needs to be quoted (the user input may not have the double quotes
-   around the name, and comparison was done between quoted and
-   unquoted strings).  It also mishandled names that need RFC2047
-   quoting.
-
- * Call to discard_cache/discard_index (used when we use different
-   contents of the index in-core, in many operations like commit,
-   apply, and merge) used to leak memory that held the array of index
-   entries, which has been plugged.
-   (merge a0fc4db rs/discard-index-discard-array later to maint).
-
- * "gitweb" forgot to clear a global variable $search_regexp upon each
-   request, mistakenly carrying over the previous search to a new one
-   when used as a persistent CGI.
-
- * The wildmatch engine did not honor WM_CASEFOLD option correctly.
-
- * "git log -c --follow $path" segfaulted upon hitting the commit that
-   renamed the $path being followed.
-
- * When a reflog notation is used for implicit "current branch", we
-   did not say which branch and worse said "branch ''".
-
- * "difftool --dir-diff" did not copy back changes made by the
-   end-user in the diff tool backend to the working tree in some
-   cases.
-
- * "git push $there HEAD:branch" did not resolve HEAD early enough, so
-   it was easy to flip it around while push is still going on and push
-   out a branch that the user did not originally intended when the
-   command was started.
-
- * The bash prompt code (in contrib/) displayed the name of the branch
-   being rebased when "rebase -i/-m/-p" modes are in use, but not the
-   plain vanilla "rebase".
-
- * Handling of negative exclude pattern for directories "!dir" was
-   broken in the update to v1.8.3.
-
- * zsh prompt script that borrowed from bash prompt script did not
-   work due to slight differences in array variable notation between
-   these two shells.
-
- * An entry for "file://" scheme in the enumeration of URL types Git
-   can take in the HTML documentation was made into a clickable link
-   by mistake.
-
- * "git push --[no-]verify" was not documented.
-
- * Stop installing the git-remote-testpy script that is only used for
-   testing.
-
- * "git commit --allow-empty-message -m ''" should not start an
-   editor.
-
- * "git merge @{-1}~22" was rewritten to "git merge frotz@{1}~22"
-   incorrectly when your previous branch was "frotz" (it should be
-   rewritten to "git merge frotz~22" instead).
-
- * "git diff -c -p" was not showing a deleted line from a hunk when
-   another hunk immediately begins where the earlier one ends.
-
- * "git log --ancestry-path A...B" did not work as expected, as it did
-   not pay attention to the fact that the merge base between A and B
-   was the bottom of the range being specified.
-
- * Mac OS X does not like to write(2) more than INT_MAX number of
-   bytes; work it around by chopping write(2) into smaller pieces.
-
- * Newer MacOS X encourages the programs to compile and link with
-   their CommonCrypto, not with OpenSSL.
-
- * "git clone foo/bar:baz" cannot be a request to clone from a remote
-   over git-over-ssh specified in the scp style.  This case is now
-   detected and clones from a local repository at "foo/bar:baz".
-
- * When $HOME is misconfigured to point at an unreadable directory, we
-   used to complain and die. Loosen the check.
-
- * "git subtree" (in contrib/) had one codepath with loose error
-   checks to lose data at the remote side.
-
- * "git fetch" into a shallow repository from a repository that does
-   not know about the shallow boundary commits (e.g. a different fork
-   from the repository the current shallow repository was cloned from)
-   did not work correctly.
-
- * "git checkout foo" DWIMs the intended "upstream" and turns it into
-   "git checkout -t -b foo remotes/origin/foo". This codepath has been
-   updated to correctly take existing remote definitions into account.
