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.

-Subject: Addendum to "MaintNotes"
-Abstract: Imagine that Git development is racing along as usual, when our friendly
- neighborhood maintainer is struck down by a wayward bus. Out of the
- hordes of suckers (loyal developers), you have been tricked (chosen) to
- step up as the new maintainer. This howto will show you "how to" do it.
-Content-type: text/asciidoc
-
-How to maintain Git
-===================
-
-Activities
-----------
-
-The maintainer's Git time is spent on three activities.
-
- - Communication (45%)
-
-   Mailing list discussions on general design, fielding user
-   questions, diagnosing bug reports; reviewing, commenting on,
-   suggesting alternatives to, and rejecting patches.
-
- - Integration (50%)
-
-   Applying new patches from the contributors while spotting and
-   correcting minor mistakes, shuffling the integration and
-   testing branches, pushing the results out, cutting the
-   releases, and making announcements.
-
- - Own development (5%)
-
-   Scratching my own itch and sending proposed patch series out.
-
-The Policy
-----------
-
-The policy on Integration is informally mentioned in "A Note
-from the maintainer" message, which is periodically posted to
-this mailing list after each feature release is made.
-
- - Feature releases are numbered as vX.Y.0 and are meant to
-   contain bugfixes and enhancements in any area, including
-   functionality, performance and usability, without regression.
-
- - One release cycle for a feature release is expected to last for
-   eight to ten weeks.
-
- - Maintenance releases are numbered as vX.Y.Z and are meant
-   to contain only bugfixes for the corresponding vX.Y.0 feature
-   release and earlier maintenance releases vX.Y.W (W < Z).
-
- - 'master' branch is used to prepare for the next feature
-   release. In other words, at some point, the tip of 'master'
-   branch is tagged with vX.Y.0.
-
- - 'maint' branch is used to prepare for the next maintenance
-   release.  After the feature release vX.Y.0 is made, the tip
-   of 'maint' branch is set to that release, and bugfixes will
-   accumulate on the branch, and at some point, the tip of the
-   branch is tagged with vX.Y.1, vX.Y.2, and so on.
-
- - 'next' branch is used to publish changes (both enhancements
-   and fixes) that (1) have worthwhile goal, (2) are in a fairly
-   good shape suitable for everyday use, (3) but have not yet
-   demonstrated to be regression free.  New changes are tested
-   in 'next' before merged to 'master'.
-
- - 'seen' branch is used to publish other proposed changes that do
-   not yet pass the criteria set for 'next'.
-
- - The tips of 'master' and 'maint' branches will not be rewound to
-   allow people to build their own customization on top of them.
-   Early in a new development cycle, 'next' is rewound to the tip of
-   'master' once, but otherwise it will not be rewound until the end
-   of the cycle.
-
- - Usually 'master' contains all of 'maint' and 'next' contains all
-   of 'master'.  'seen' contains all the topics merged to 'next', but
-   is rebuilt directly on 'master'.
-
- - The tip of 'master' is meant to be more stable than any
-   tagged releases, and the users are encouraged to follow it.
-
- - The 'next' branch is where new action takes place, and the
-   users are encouraged to test it so that regressions and bugs
-   are found before new topics are merged to 'master'.
-
-Note that before v1.9.0 release, the version numbers used to be
-structured slightly differently.  vX.Y.Z were feature releases while
-vX.Y.Z.W were maintenance releases for vX.Y.Z.
-
-
-A Typical Git Day
------------------
-
-A typical Git day for the maintainer implements the above policy
-by doing the following:
-
- - Scan mailing list.  Respond with review comments, suggestions
-   etc.  Kibitz.  Collect potentially usable patches from the
-   mailing list.  Patches about a single topic go to one mailbox (I
-   read my mail in Gnus, and type \C-o to save/append messages in
-   files in mbox format).
-
- - Write his own patches to address issues raised on the list but
-   nobody has stepped up solving.  Send it out just like other
-   contributors do, and pick them up just like patches from other
-   contributors (see above).
-
- - Review the patches in the saved mailboxes.  Edit proposed log
-   message for typofixes and clarifications, and add Acks
-   collected from the list.  Edit patch to incorporate "Oops,
-   that should have been like this" fixes from the discussion.
-
- - Classify the collected patches and handle 'master' and
-   'maint' updates:
-
-   - Obviously correct fixes that pertain to the tip of 'maint'
-     are directly applied to 'maint'.
-
-   - Obviously correct fixes that pertain to the tip of 'master'
-     are directly applied to 'master'.
-
-   - Other topics are not handled in this step.
-
-   This step is done with "git am".
-
-     $ git checkout master    ;# or "git checkout maint"
-     $ git am -sc3 mailbox
-     $ make test
-
-   In practice, almost no patch directly goes to 'master' or
-   'maint'.
-
- - Review the last issue of "What's cooking" message, review the
-   topics ready for merging (topic->master and topic->maint).  Use
-   "Meta/cook -w" script (where Meta/ contains a checkout of the
-   'todo' branch) to aid this step.
-
-   And perform the merge.  Use "Meta/Reintegrate -e" script (see
-   later) to aid this step.
-
-     $ Meta/cook -w last-issue-of-whats-cooking.mbox
-
-     $ git checkout master    ;# or "git checkout maint"
-     $ echo ai/topic | Meta/Reintegrate -e ;# "git merge ai/topic"
-     $ git log -p ORIG_HEAD.. ;# final review
-     $ git diff ORIG_HEAD..   ;# final review
-     $ make test              ;# final review
-
- - Handle the remaining patches:
-
-   - Anything unobvious that is applicable to 'master' (in other
-     words, does not depend on anything that is still in 'next'
-     and not in 'master') is applied to a new topic branch that
-     is forked from the tip of 'master' (or the last feature release,
-     which is a bit older than 'master').  This includes both
-     enhancements and unobvious fixes to 'master'.  A topic
-     branch is named as ai/topic where "ai" is two-letter string
-     named after author's initial and "topic" is a descriptive name
-     of the topic (in other words, "what's the series is about").
-
-   - An unobvious fix meant for 'maint' is applied to a new
-     topic branch that is forked from the tip of 'maint' (or the
-     oldest and still relevant maintenance branch).  The
-     topic may be named as ai/maint-topic.
-
-   - Changes that pertain to an existing topic are applied to
-     the branch, but:
-
-     - obviously correct ones are applied first;
-
-     - questionable ones are discarded or applied to near the tip;
-
-   - Replacement patches to an existing topic are accepted only
-     for commits not in 'next'.
-
-   The initial round is done with:
-
-     $ git checkout ai/topic ;# or "git checkout -b ai/topic master"
-     $ git am -sc3 mailbox
-
-   and replacing an existing topic with subsequent round is done with:
-
-     $ git checkout master...ai/topic ;# try to reapply to the same base
-     $ git am -sc3 mailbox
-
-   to prepare the new round on a detached HEAD, and then
-
-     $ git range-diff @{-1}...
-     $ git diff @{-1}
-
-   to double check what changed since the last round, and finally
-
-     $ git checkout -B @{-1}
-
-   to conclude (the last step is why a topic already in 'next' is
-   not replaced but updated incrementally).
-
-   Whether it is the initial round or a subsequent round, the topic
-   may not build even in isolation, or may break the build when
-   merged to integration branches due to bugs.  There may already
-   be obvious and trivial improvements suggested on the list.  The
-   maintainer often adds an extra commit, with "SQUASH???" in its
-   title, to fix things up, before publishing the integration
-   branches to make it usable by other developers for testing.
-   These changes are what the maintainer is not 100% committed to
-   (trivial typofixes etc. are often squashed directly into the
-   patches that need fixing, without being applied as a separate
-   "SQUASH???" commit), so that they can be removed easily as needed.
-
-
- - Merge maint to master as needed:
-
-     $ git checkout master
-     $ git merge maint
-     $ make test
-
- - Merge master to next as needed:
-
-     $ git checkout next
-     $ git merge master
-     $ make test
-
- - Review the last issue of "What's cooking" again and see if topics
-   that are ready to be merged to 'next' are still in good shape
-   (e.g. has there any new issue identified on the list with the
-   series?)
-
- - Prepare 'jch' branch, which is used to represent somewhere
-   between 'master' and 'seen' and often is slightly ahead of 'next'.
-
-     $ Meta/Reintegrate master..seen >Meta/redo-jch.sh
-
-   The result is a script that lists topics to be merged in order to
-   rebuild 'seen' as the input to Meta/Reintegrate script.  Remove
-   later topics that should not be in 'jch' yet.  Add a line that
-   consists of '### match next' before the name of the first topic
-   in the output that should be in 'jch' but not in 'next' yet.
-
- - Now we are ready to start merging topics to 'next'.  For each
-   branch whose tip is not merged to 'next', one of three things can
-   happen:
-
-   - The commits are all next-worthy; merge the topic to next;
-   - The new parts are of mixed quality, but earlier ones are
-     next-worthy; merge the early parts to next;
-   - Nothing is next-worthy; do not do anything.
-
-   This step is aided with Meta/redo-jch.sh script created earlier.
-   If a topic that was already in 'next' gained a patch, the script
-   would list it as "ai/topic~1".  To include the new patch to the
-   updated 'next', drop the "~1" part; to keep it excluded, do not
-   touch the line.  If a topic that was not in 'next' should be
-   merged to 'next', add it at the end of the list.  Then:
-
-     $ git checkout -B jch master
-     $ Meta/redo-jch.sh -c1
-
-   to rebuild the 'jch' branch from scratch.  "-c1" tells the script
-   to stop merging at the first line that begins with '###'
-   (i.e. the "### match next" line you added earlier).
-
-   At this point, build-test the result.  It may reveal semantic
-   conflicts (e.g. a topic renamed a variable, another added a new
-   reference to the variable under its old name), in which case
-   prepare an appropriate merge-fix first (see appendix), and
-   rebuild the 'jch' branch from scratch, starting at the tip of
-   'master'.
-
-   Then do the same to 'next'
-
-     $ git checkout next
-     $ sh Meta/redo-jch.sh -c1 -e
-
-   The "-e" option allows the merge message that comes from the
-   history of the topic and the comments in the "What's cooking" to
-   be edited.  The resulting tree should match 'jch' as the same set
-   of topics are merged on 'master'; otherwise there is a mismerge.
-   Investigate why and do not proceed until the mismerge is found
-   and rectified.
-
-     $ git diff jch next
-
-   When all is well, clean up the redo-jch.sh script with
-
-     $ sh Meta/redo-jch.sh -u
-
-   This removes topics listed in the script that have already been
-   merged to 'master'.  This may lose '### match next' marker;
-   add it again to the appropriate place when it happens.
-
- - Rebuild 'seen'.
-
-     $ Meta/Reintegrate master..seen >Meta/redo-seen.sh
-
-   Edit the result by adding new topics that are not still in 'seen'
-   in the script.  Then
-
-     $ git checkout -B seen jch
-     $ sh Meta/redo-seen.sh
-
-   When all is well, clean up the redo-seen.sh script with
-
-     $ sh Meta/redo-seen.sh -u
-
-   Double check by running
-
-     $ git branch --no-merged seen
-
-   to see there is no unexpected leftover topics.
-
-   At this point, build-test the result for semantic conflicts, and
-   if there are, prepare an appropriate merge-fix first (see
-   appendix), and rebuild the 'seen' branch from scratch, starting at
-   the tip of 'jch'.
-
- - Update "What's cooking" message to review the updates to
-   existing topics, newly added topics and graduated topics.
-
-   This step is helped with Meta/cook script.
-
-     $ Meta/cook
-
-   This script inspects the history between master..seen, finds tips
-   of topic branches, compares what it found with the current
-   contents in Meta/whats-cooking.txt, and updates that file.
-   Topics not listed in the file but are found in master..seen are
-   added to the "New topics" section, topics listed in the file that
-   are no longer found in master..seen are moved to the "Graduated to
-   master" section, and topics whose commits changed their states
-   (e.g. used to be only in 'seen', now merged to 'next') are updated
-   with change markers "<<" and ">>".
-
-   Look for lines enclosed in "<<" and ">>"; they hold contents from
-   old file that are replaced by this integration round.  After
-   verifying them, remove the old part.  Review the description for
-   each topic and update its doneness and plan as needed.  To review
-   the updated plan, run
-
-     $ Meta/cook -w
-
-   which will pick up comments given to the topics, such as "Will
-   merge to 'next'", etc. (see Meta/cook script to learn what kind
-   of phrases are supported).
-
- - Compile, test and install all four (five) integration branches;
-   Meta/Dothem script may aid this step.
-
- - Format documentation if the 'master' branch was updated;
-   Meta/dodoc.sh script may aid this step.
-
- - Push the integration branches out to public places; Meta/pushall
-   script may aid this step.
-
-Observations
-------------
-
-Some observations to be made.
-
- * Each topic is tested individually, and also together with other
-   topics cooking first in 'seen', then in 'jch' and then in 'next'.
-   Until it matures, no part of it is merged to 'master'.
-
- * A topic already in 'next' can get fixes while still in
-   'next'.  Such a topic will have many merges to 'next' (in
-   other words, "git log --first-parent next" will show many
-   "Merge branch 'ai/topic' to next" for the same topic.
-
- * An unobvious fix for 'maint' is cooked in 'next' and then
-   merged to 'master' to make extra sure it is Ok and then
-   merged to 'maint'.
-
- * Even when 'next' becomes empty (in other words, all topics
-   prove stable and are merged to 'master' and "git diff master
-   next" shows empty), it has tons of merge commits that will
-   never be in 'master'.
-
- * In principle, "git log --first-parent master..next" should
-   show nothing but merges (in practice, there are fixup commits
-   and reverts that are not merges).
-
- * Commits near the tip of a topic branch that are not in 'next'
-   are fair game to be discarded, replaced or rewritten.
-   Commits already merged to 'next' will not be.
-
- * Being in the 'next' branch is not a guarantee for a topic to
-   be included in the next feature release.  Being in the
-   'master' branch typically is.
-
- * Due to the nature of "SQUASH???" fix-ups, if the original author
-   agrees with the suggested changes, it is OK to squash them to
-   appropriate patches in the next round (when the suggested change
-   is small enough, the author should not even bother with
-   "Helped-by").  It is also OK to drop them from the next round
-   when the original author does not agree with the suggestion, but
-   the author is expected to say why somewhere in the discussion.

-Appendix
---------
-
-Preparing a "merge-fix"
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-A merge of two topics may not textually conflict but still have
-conflict at the semantic level. A classic example is for one topic
-to rename an variable and all its uses, while another topic adds a
-new use of the variable under its old name. When these two topics
-are merged together, the reference to the variable newly added by
-the latter topic will still use the old name in the result.
-
-The Meta/Reintegrate script that is used by redo-jch and redo-seen
-scripts implements a crude but usable way to work this issue around.
-When the script merges branch $X, it checks if "refs/merge-fix/$X"
-exists, and if so, the effect of it is squashed into the result of
-the mechanical merge.  In other words,
-
-     $ echo $X | Meta/Reintegrate
-
-is roughly equivalent to this sequence:
-
-     $ git merge --rerere-autoupdate $X
-     $ git commit
-     $ git cherry-pick -n refs/merge-fix/$X
-     $ git commit --amend
-
-The goal of this "prepare a merge-fix" step is to come up with a
-commit that can be squashed into a result of mechanical merge to
-correct semantic conflicts.
-
-After finding that the result of merging branch "ai/topic" to an
-integration branch had such a semantic conflict, say seen~4, check the
-problematic merge out on a detached HEAD, edit the working tree to
-fix the semantic conflict, and make a separate commit to record the
-fix-up:
-
-     $ git checkout seen~4
-     $ git show -s --pretty=%s ;# double check
-     Merge branch 'ai/topic' to seen
-     $ edit
-     $ git commit -m 'merge-fix/ai/topic' -a
-
-Then make a reference "refs/merge-fix/ai/topic" to point at this
-result:
-
-     $ git update-ref refs/merge-fix/ai/topic HEAD
-
-Then double check the result by asking Meta/Reintegrate to redo the
-merge:
-
-     $ git checkout seen~5 ;# the parent of the problem merge
-     $ echo ai/topic | Meta/Reintegrate
-     $ git diff seen~4
-
-This time, because you prepared refs/merge-fix/ai/topic, the
-resulting merge should have been tweaked to include the fix for the
-semantic conflict.
-
-Note that this assumes that the order in which conflicting branches
-are merged does not change.  If the reason why merging ai/topic
-branch needs this merge-fix is because another branch merged earlier
-to the integration branch changed the underlying assumption ai/topic
-branch made (e.g. ai/topic branch added a site to refer to a
-variable, while the other branch renamed that variable and adjusted
-existing use sites), and if you changed redo-jch (or redo-seen) script
-to merge ai/topic branch before the other branch, then the above
-merge-fix should not be applied while merging ai/topic, but should
-instead be applied while merging the other branch.  You would need
-to move the fix to apply to the other branch, perhaps like this:
-
-      $ mf=refs/merge-fix
-      $ git update-ref $mf/$the_other_branch $mf/ai/topic
-      $ git update-ref -d $mf/ai/topic
