Vincent Ambo f4609b896f merge(3p/git): Merge git subtree at v2.29.2
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.

Git v1.7.10.4 Release Notes
===========================
Fixes since v1.7.10.3
---------------------
* The message file for Swedish translation has been updated a bit.
* A name taken from mailmap was copied into an internal buffer
incorrectly and could overrun the buffer if it is too long.
* A malformed commit object that has a header line chomped in the
middle could kill git with a NULL pointer dereference.
* An author/committer name that is a single character was mishandled
as an invalid name by mistake.
* The progress indicator for a large "git checkout" was sent to
stderr even if it is not a terminal.
* "git grep -e '$pattern'", unlike the case where the patterns are
read from a file, did not treat individual lines in the given
pattern argument as separate regular expressions as it should.
* When "git rebase" was given a bad commit to replay the history on,
its error message did not correctly give the command line argument
it had trouble parsing.
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
