[OE-core] [WR PATCH 1/2] Require git 1.7.7

From: Jeff Polk <jeff.polk at windriver.com>

Due to some unique processes that we use, outside of OE-Core, we need
to mandate git 1.7.7 as the older allowed version.  This version contains
a fix that correctly handles reference clones which we use for our
RCPL updates.
