Bug#879459: git: please build against openssl with OPENSSL_SHA1=1

Git’s builtin SHA-1 implementation has the advantage of trying to detect attempted collisions (https://github.com/cr-marcstevens/sha1collisiondetection), which seems like good thing to do by default these days. Furthermore, Debian does not ship GPL code linked with OpenSSL for license reasons
