Nothing of Apple's (such as /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/libexec/git-core/git) should be referencing anything of MacPorts's (such as /opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib). The only reason that might happen is if you set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. So don't set that. > I can only fix this if I put /usr/lib in the front of DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, but > this breaks tons of other command. You should not need to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH at all.

The "Skipping" lines show us that this was not a clean attempt so no conclusions can be reached from it. "sudo port clean git" and try again.
