Switched to fetch from git, because the related tarball is not available

Dropped patch that became unnecessary.
Changelog:
News in 49.0, 2026-01-03
------------------------
* Metainfo data: add more infos to fix Flathub warnings.
* Cleanup: remove BuildStream and Snap from build-aux/ (outdated).
* Translation updates.
News in 49.alpha2, 2025-11-17
-----------------------------
User-visible changes:
* Add a max-file-size setting for document loading, fixing the common problem
with very large files.
* New symbolic app icon (to have a square one).
* Statusbar: fix a bug with the language button popover.
Under the hood changes:
* Fix a compilation warning.
* Statusbar:
- Move some features of GeditStatusbar to libgedit-tepl as TeplStatusbar.
- GeditWindowStatus: new internal class to offload some work that was done in
GeditWindow, to avoid a god class.
- *.ui -> code.
Other:
* Translation updates.
* Tools: generate-html-list-of-plugins-description.sh script (output HTML
content that is put on the website instead of generating a Markdown file
located in the git repository).
News in 49.alpha1, 2025-09-05
-----------------------------
User-visible changes:
* gedit icon: take an older version for small sizes. The older version looks
nicer.
* Code Comment/Uncomment plugin: some bugs have been fixed, and the behavior can
be slightly different in some situations. A new user manual page has also been
written.
* Setup allowed GDK backends to disable Wayland. Only the X11 backend is allowed
on Linux (so it relies on XWayland when running the application on a Wayland
session). It fixes some bugs, especially for the Word Completion plugin.
Under the hood changes:
* Tools: add generate-c-plugin, to generate the boilerplate C code for a new
plugin.
* Code Comment/Uncomment plugin: rewrite it in C, and have the bulk of the
implementation in libgedit-tepl.
* Port to new GtkSourceEncoding API.
* GeditTab refactorings:
- Extract gedit-tab-utils.c.
- Start to extract GeditTabLoader (private class).
* Various other code refactorings.
Developer documentation:
* Improve the developer documentation, and start to write the
“Gedit Development Guidelines”.
* Improve API docs of the Activatable classes.
Other:
* Metainfo data: add a donation URL.
* Translation updates.
News in 48.2, 2025-04-14
------------------------
* Update links to new website domain name: https://gedit-text-editor.org/
* It is no longer possible to implement plugins in Python.
* New features:
- Reset All button in the preferences dialog.
- In the Spell Checker plugin: be able to configure the default language used
for the spell-checking in new documents.
* Code refactorings:
- In GeditWindow and GeditPreferencesDialog.
- Don't use the g_slice_*() functions (deprecated).
- In the Spell Checker plugin.
* MS Windows: change default font to Consolas.
* macOS: install an icon (work by LI Daobing).
* Metainfo: improve it (work by Daniel Rusek).
* Some updates to the user manual.
* Improve the devel documentation.
* Translation updates.
News in 48.1, 2024-12-07
------------------------
This is _not_ a bug-fix release, it contains other changes. The current plan is
to release gedit 49.0 at the same time as GNOME 49.0, to come back to the same
numbers as GNOME, but with more frequent releases like this one.
* Removed plugins: External Tools, Snippets, Python Console.
* Text Size plugin: rewrite in C.
* Remove the background-pattern feature (with the grid).
* Fix bug on Wayland to unmaximize the window.
* Code refactorings.
* Fix compilation warning.
* Translation updates.
News in 48.0, 2024-09-14
------------------------
New features:
* Full support of light/dark GTK theme variants. Configuration is done in the
Preferences dialog -> Font & Colors.
Visible changes:
* Add missing tooltips to some buttons (Sabri Ünal).
* The Text Size plugin has been moved from gedit-plugins to this repository, and
is now enabled by default.
* Remove Quick Open plugin.
* Mark some plugins as "buggy plugins": External Tools and Snippets.
Bug fixes:
* Fix some warning messages that appeared at runtime.
* Fix a crash.
For Microsoft Windows:
* Add Portable Executable resource icon, to associate an icon with the
executable (Hernan Martinez, gwillems and Sébastien Wilmet).
* Make gedit work without patches for MINGW-packages.
Misc:
* Some code refactorings.
* Update the user manual for the new feature ("Change the color scheme" page).
* Side panel: adapt to latest libgedit-tepl API.
* Bottom panel: port to TeplPanel.
* Build instructions: Meson refactorings.
* Translation updates (GNOME Translation Project contributors).
-- Sébastien Wilmet (main contributor and reviewer).
News in 47.0, 2024-04-27 (stable version)
-----------------------------------------
Web presence:
* New website for gedit: https://gedit-technology.github.io/apps/gedit/
* Update URLs for gedit-technology.net -> https://gedit-technology.github.io/
* Start to migrate away from wiki.gnome.org.
Branding:
* Restore the previous app icons and logo.
New features:
* Experimental: add light/dark GTK theme variant configuration (as a hidden
GSettings key for now).
Removed features:
* Localization (l10n): all the translations are disabled, gedit is available in
English only because some underlying modules are not on l10n.gnome.org or
equivalent.
* In the preferences dialog, remove the toolbar to install/uninstall color
schemes. Third-party color schemes are still supported, but the XML file(s)
need to be copied into the right directory by another means, see:
https://gedit-technology.github.io/developer-docs/extra/libgedit-gtksourceview/style-schemes.html
or also the gedit user help documentation.
Under-the-hood changes:
* Adapt the code for libgedit-gtksourceview API changes.
* Adapt the code for the Tepl -> libgedit-tepl module rename.
* Code refactorings, various improvements and bug fixes.
* Continue to reduce usage of *.ui files, write code instead.
* Use newer GLib API at some places.
* Add -Wshadow to the CFLAGS and fix the corresponding warnings.
For plugins:
* Some API changes (see the page documenting the API breaks).
* Improve the API documentation.
Misc:
* Rename *.appdata.xml to *.metainfo.xml and do some updates to that file.
* Update documentation for contributors.
* Links to some third-party plugins.
