[PATCH 06/10] sequencer: drop repository argument from run_git_commit()

When we switched to using an external git-commit call in b0a3186140 (sequencer: simplify root commit creation, 2019-08-19), this function didn't need to care about the repository object any more.

Arguably we could be passing along the repository path to the external git-commit by using "--git-dir=r->path" here. But for the most part the sequencer code relies on sub-process finding the same repository we're already in (using the same environment variables or discovery process we did). But we don't have a convenient interface for doing so, and there's no indication that we need to. Let's just drop the unused parameter for now.
