I have git on my portal www.aixtools.net (See http://www.aixtools.net/index.php/git)
These are installp packages - and what you install, you can uninstall. There are some dependencies (e.g., python, gnu grep, and a few others). Can't say I use it daily, but I do use it weekly. For additional questions or issues with this packaging - please post on http://forums.rootvg.net/aixtools - I see that a lot sooner than any email (on gmail).
