Bug #2030: illumos use of git could really use a newer git

The current git in OI is very very old.  So old that it's, I think, not possible for the illumos tools to be written over it (certain information we need isn't really accessible).

I'm currently using git 1.7.7, which I know works, but the things which I know that we need and are not present in the old git are these:

<pre>
git for-each-ref --format='%(refname:short) %(upstream:short)' refs/heads
</pre>

Should show the full commit message, prior to the tree diff.  (neither just the first line, nor just %B).

Should, for each ref, output that ref, and any ref it is tracking, per line.

<pre>
git whatchanged --pretty=format:%B HEAD^..
</pre>
