I can confirm that "git ls-<Tab>" does not offer completion for me with
@1.6.2.3_0+bash_completion either.

But some tests showed me that it worked with older 1.5.x versions. From
1.5.x to 1.6.x, git removed the git-* commands and they are only
available without the dash. Therefore the completion code also changed.
The git bash completion we are using ships with the upstream tarball.

It seems to me that git changed this intentionally. So I would say you
should check that up with the git project directly, as it does not seem
to be specific to git in MacPorts.
