Only if you use the git meta package, which is intended to bring in everything.
 If you just want git, use git-core.
Comment 2 Josh Boyer 2007-06-28 01:52:05 UTC 
Marking as not a bug.  git is a meta-package and the individual packages can be
installed if users don't want to install everything.

Note that in bug 433209, git (the meta-package) was renamed to git-all, and
git-core was renamed to git. This means that other packages that naively depend
on git won't pull in all the unnecessary dependencies
