git-flow: Eliminate dependency on git

Description
git-flow currently forces installation of the MacPorts git port. Since MacPorts requires Xcode be installed and Xcode provides git is this dependency necessary anymore? It would be great if the installation of git was optional when installing git-flow.

That makes sense if git-flow depends on a specific version of git, but it doesn't. It is simply a collection of scripts. The presence of git executables is all that is required.

interfaces to programs never change, and Apple never ships broken executables.

MacPorts depends on its own versions of things on purpose.
