🧰 Changes

Noticed this morning while upgrading Nodegit locally that a subdependency of got was also bumped. Was curious why got was being installed at all and it's used in the acquireOpenSSL utility that's used when generating Electron builds1.

Since these are nothing we use, and we ship pre-compiled versions of nodegit anyways it doesn't make sense for got to be listed as a hardline dependency.
