I think it's more accurate to say that Apple often takes their time patching these vulnerabilities. CVE‑2016‑2324 and CVE‑2016‑2315 were announced in March 2016 but Apple didn't release a patched version with Xcode until May 2016. Are there any major security vulnerabilities in git Apple hasn't yet released a patch for, other than this one?
But yeah, Homebrew gets the patches out much faster. It's probably the right move to prefer using Homebrew's git to system git.
