Subject: [PATCH] fix(docs): Make git repo available when building docs (#3761)

This is a quick and dirty fix to get docs to load released code snippets
again. We should not need to pass the entire git repo to the build
context to make it work, but it should buy us some time until we ship a
proper solution (see #3754).
