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 v2.12.1 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v2.12
------------------
-
- * Reduce authentication round-trip over HTTP when the server supports
-   just a single authentication method.  This also improves the
-   behaviour when Git is misconfigured to enable http.emptyAuth
-   against a server that does not authenticate without a username
-   (i.e. not using Kerberos etc., which makes http.emptyAuth
-   pointless).
-
- * Windows port wants to use OpenSSL's implementation of SHA-1
-   routines, so let them.
-
- * Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with
-   Travis CI.
-
- * When a redirected http transport gets an error during the
-   redirected request, we ignored the error we got from the server,
-   and ended up giving a not-so-useful error message.
-
- * The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths
-   selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p"
-   directly jumps to hunk selection.  Recently, this was broken and
-   "add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been
-   fixed.
-
- * Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various
-   operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when
-   seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault.
-
- * The code to parse "git log -L..." command line was buggy when there
-   are many ranges specified with -L; overrun of the allocated buffer
-   has been fixed.
-
- * The command-line parsing of "git log -L" copied internal data
-   structures using incorrect size on ILP32 systems.
-
-Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
