devtool: prevent starting git gc in background

Devtool creates a git repository for extracted sources in a temporary
directory and then moves it to a final destination after patching is
done. Unfortunately devtool is not aware that some of its git operations
may have caused git garbage collector to start in background. If timing
is just right a repository move fails because GC is removing git objects
while they are being moved.

The issue was hit on Krogoth release, but the code that moves created
git repository is still the same.

Disable gc.autodetach to make GC run synchronously and block git until
it is done.
