Do we really need to import git into the base?  Users which are upgrading from
a non-git release could use the pkgsrc version and for new users (e.g. after
2.2) we can install the pkgsrc git package during the CD bootstrap.

Maintaining git in the base adds another third party piece of software we have
to maintain.  If we take it from pkgsrc, we don't have to care about updates
etc.

Cheers
