Arch recently retired git.archlinux.org and now hosts SVN mirrors on
GitLab and GitHub. This caused builds of packages which downloaded
patches from git.archlinux.org to fail. This was mentioned on IRC a few
days ago and I encountered it myself when building texlive-bin without
substitutes. This commit points links to where the patches now live.
