Should this patch be added to git ebuild patch folder, with a new USE flag?
That is possible, but you can add patches to ebuilds on your own: Create a directory: mkdir -p /etc/portage/patches/dev-vcs/git/ and store the patch file from Sam's email into this directory. Then do a "emerge -1 dev-vcs/git" and you should be able to see that your "user patch" is applied to the current and every new git version. see also https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/patches
