You have the options when you install a port of creating an archive (it
is in a config file, I don't remember which). Then you will have a
/opt/local/var/macports/packages/system/arch/ directory in which the
package will be stored. Duplicating the archive to the good place on the
other machine makes 'port install git-core' able to use those
ports that have been precompiled by your other machine.

The argument can only be the name of a port, a meta-name of a port
("outdated" or "category:tex" for example).

Best,
