Over here - using a non-standard ELDK/LFS mixture, git depends at least on: zlib () libcurl (http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.14.0.tar.bz2) openssl () diff () diffstat (ftp://invisible-island.net/diffstat/diffstat-1.39.tgz) which (http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/which/which-2.16.tar.gz) rsync (http://samba.anu.edu.au/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.6.5.tar.gz) perl ()

() -> ask Google. The versions given in brackets seem to work fine for me. - YMMV
