GitDownloadStrategy: don't pass --depth to fetch

The --depth option is apparently more nuanced that I had originally thought, and while it does not actually break repositories, repeatedly using "--depth 1" can cause problems depending on the structure of the history. Luckily, we don't actually need it to prevent the entire repository from being fetched as long as the fetch respec is set correctly, which we do since 7718c93. Fixes Homebrew#12024.
