My only thought would be to wrap the lines suitably:
#!/opt/local/bin/bash
cd "~/base/" \ && /opt/local/bin/svn update \ && PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin ./configure --enable- readline \ && /usr/bin/make \ && /opt/local/bin/sudo /usr/bin/make install \ && /usr/bin/make clean \ && /opt/local/bin/port -v selfupdate \ && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdRnu upgrade outdated \ && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR clean --all installed \ && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR uninstall inactive \ && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR clean --all uninstalled
Now that I can read what you wrote ;-)
I wish you wouldn't indiscriminately use the -f (force) flag all the time. If it were intended to be used all the time it would have been made the default. In particular it should only be needed for "port -f uninstall inactive". It should not be needed for clean, and the only times it would be needed for upgrade are in unusual situations, which you would probably want to handle by hand individually rather than automate.

This problem was fixed in r34462 on 2008-02-25. That means your port definitions are out of date. "sudo port selfupdate" to get the latest MacPorts and port definitions. Then "sudo port uninstall git-core @1.5.3.7_0+doc" and "sudo port install git-core", which will this time get you the current version which is 1.5.4.4.
thanks, sorry it didn't occur to me to do that but im use to the debian modle which requires network access to check the repo everytime you install (so this one is superior)
spoke too soon .. MacPorts base version 1.600 installed
Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.600
The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated selfupdate done!
That is correct. MacPorts base was not outdated, therefore MacPorts base was not updated. However, your port definitions were outdated, and they were updated, even if it didn't say so. Now try installing git-core again.

naturlaly i already tried, I should note that I am on a Tiger based system. should I use port clean? (how ever one might use that)
Sure, you could try port clean. "sudo port clean --work git-core". Then try installing again. Manually cleaning shouldn't be necessary though if the portfile was updated, since MacPorts will see that the portfile differs and will clean automatically.
Does it try to install 1.5.4.4 now or still 1.5.3.7?
If it still doesn't work, what is the error message?

will do any way, it tries to install git-core 1.5.4.4_0+doc the delay is because i am in the middle of installing bazaar and thought it would be done by the time u replied (little did i know it had to upgrade python to 2.5.2 ) -- "lalalalala! it's not broken because I can use it" http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=194281&threshold=1&commentsort=0&m...
