When enabling perl USE flag on dev-util/git it works, so it should probably be installed _only_ when the perl USE flag is enabled.

One more note: git-svnimport depends on libwww-perl

$ git-svnimport

I have dev-util/git-1.5.3.7-r1 built with USE="+bash-completion -cgi +curl +doc -emacs +gtk +iconv -mozsha1 +perl -ppcsha1 -tk -webdav"
Comment 2 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2008-02-01 10:47:55 UTC 
gentoo@darkk.net.ru: do not use git-svnimport. Upstream has said it is obsolete, replaced by git-svn directly.

For the general side of this, we don't want to this, because we then get questions about where a given tool is. Maybe it will be revisited when the metadata.xml USE-flag specific discussion and GLEP is completed.

In the meantime, I updated the stuff printed at the end of the emerge.
