There are several instances of OpenJDK source being hosted in Git repositories
instead of Mercurial. AdoptOpenJDK is one and some engineers use local
conversions for their day to day work. Project Skara aims to investigate Git as
well. To better support this, the build needs to be able to support Git as an
alternative to Mercurial when creating the identification hash in the release
file. It would also be convenient with a .gitignore file mirroring the
.hgignore file.
This patch adds such support as well as a .gitignore file.

The comment starting at line 36 of make/SourceRevision.gmk needs updating.
Good catch. Will fix.
