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definitions are out of date.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.
