merge(3p/git): Merge git subtree at v2.29.2 r/1890

This also bumps the stable nixpkgs to 20.09 as of 2020-11-21, because
there is some breakage in the git build related to the netrc
credentials helper which someone has taken care of in nixpkgs.

The stable channel is not used for anything other than git, so this
should be fine.

-allocation growing API
-======================
-
-Dynamically growing an array using realloc() is error prone and boring.
-
-Define your array with:
-
-* a pointer (`item`) that points at the array, initialized to `NULL`
-  (although please name the variable based on its contents, not on its
-  type);
-
-* an integer variable (`alloc`) that keeps track of how big the current
-  allocation is, initialized to `0`;
-
-* another integer variable (`nr`) to keep track of how many elements the
-  array currently has, initialized to `0`.
-
-Then before adding `n`th element to the item, call `ALLOC_GROW(item, n,
-alloc)`.  This ensures that the array can hold at least `n` elements by
-calling `realloc(3)` and adjusting `alloc` variable.
-
-------------
-sometype *item;
-size_t nr;
-size_t alloc
-
-for (i = 0; i < nr; i++)
-	if (we like item[i] already)
-		return;
-
-/* we did not like any existing one, so add one */
-ALLOC_GROW(item, nr + 1, alloc);
-item[nr++] = value you like;
-------------
-
-You are responsible for updating the `nr` variable.
-
-If you need to specify the number of elements to allocate explicitly
-then use the macro `REALLOC_ARRAY(item, alloc)` instead of `ALLOC_GROW`.
