Are you sure you're executing /opt/local/bin/git and not /usr/bin/git?

    % /opt/local/bin/git help -w merge
    [Safari opens]
    % /usr/bin/git help -w merge
    fatal: HTML documentation is not provided by this distribution of git.
    %

Did you just install the git port? If so, try running `hash -r` to refresh your 
shell's command hash table, so that `git` refers to /opt/local/bin/git.
