So, that overlay needs to be updated.
Contact its maintainers or correct the ebuild yourself.

With the updated sys-apps/portage works fine.
What I really outlight was the presence of outdated references into the portage files, eg:
dev-util/git in a message of /usr/lib/portage/pym/_emerge/actions.py

Ok, it was your system them.

This also should NEVER have been assigned to gpackages.
