[DUG] XE7 git

XE7 git support differs from that in Visual Studio in that it is not "baked
in" to the IDE.

XE7 simply invokes separately installed git client software (specifically
git.exe), where-as Visual Studio itself *is* a git client (no need for a
separate git.exe).

This is why Visual Studio needs it's own patch to address this issue.  With
XE7 you simply make sure you are using a patched version of the separate
git client software.
