Description

### Description
Hi,

I find the current git icon not so fitting in with the rest of the icons (since it is simple the word "git"). It is probably not so helpful when going through files and folders to find something like this (especially the "git .git" combo)
![screenshot 2018-08-13 09 26 15](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6169021/44018518-5c403c94-9edc-11e8-8003-0cfd54c2f776.png)

I would propose to use the alternative git icons instead:

I will shortly post a pull request for it.
