The second sentence is implied by the very presence of this patch,
thus adds no value. I, personally, would drop it.

Also, your sign-off is missing (as mentioned in my previous review[1]).

You need to document this new Makefile variable (HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
at the top of Makefile (as mentioned in my previous review[1]), so
that people who build without running 'configure' will know that they
may need to tweak it.

You could simplify the above four lines to this one-liner:

    GIT_CHECK_FUNC(clock_gettime,
        GIT_CONF_SUBST([HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME], [YesPlease]))

No need to pass empty trailing arguments in m4. It's customary to drop
them altogether (since they are implied).

Ditto regarding simplification:

    AC_MSG_CHECKING([for CLOCK_MONOTONIC])
    AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([CLOCK_MONOTONIC_SRC],
        [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes])
        GIT_CONF_SUBST([HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC], [YesPlease])],
        [AC_MSG_RESULT([no])])
