Comment (by egall@…):

 It has a lot of dependencies for building from source: http://git-
 annex.branchable.com/install/fromscratch/

 || hinotify (Linux only) || N/A ||
 || dbus || we have a dbus port, but '''not''' one for haskell bindings to
 it ||

 || yesod-static || nothing close ||
 || yesod-default || nothing close ||
 || data-default || we have a port for hs-data-default ||

 ||
 || HTTP || we have a port for hs-http
 || unix-compat || nothing close ||
 || MonadCatchIO-transformers || nothing close ||
 = Shell commands =
 || `git` || `git` comes with Xcode as of Xcode 4; we also have a port for
 `git` ||
 || `xargs` || part of OS X; MacPorts provides a `gxargs` as part of its
 `findutils` port, which has a symlink to its un-g-prefixed name in
 `/opt/local/libexec/gnubin` ||
 || `rsync` || part of OS X; MacPorts also has a port for `rsync` ||
 || `curl` (optional, but recommended) || part of OS X; MacPorts also has a
 port for `curl` ||
 || `wget` (optional) || Removed from OS X as of 10.1 Puma; MacPorts has a
 port for `wget` ||
 || `sha1sum` (optional, but recommended; a sha1 command will also do) ||
 MacPorts's `sha1sum` command is provided by the `md5sha1sum` port. ||
 || `gpg` (optional; needed for encryption) || MacPorts has a `gnupg` port
 ||
 || `lsof` (optional; recommended for watch mode) || part of OS X; MacPorts
 does '''not''' provide its own version ||
 || `gcrypt` (optional) || MacPorts has a `libgcrypt` port and perl
 bindings to it ||
 || multicast DNS support, provided on linux by nss-mdns (optional;
 recommended for the assistant to support pairing well) || OS X has bonjour
 built-in for multicast dns support. I forked
 [https://github.com/cooljeanius/nss-mdns-0.10 nss-mdns] with the intention
 of bringing it to MacPorts, but failed to get it to build for OS X, and as
 such, I have not been able to write a Portfile for it yet... MacPorts does
 have a port for `mdnsd`, though, which is another software package that
 provides multicast DNS support. ||
 || `ikiwiki` (optional; used to build the docs) || we have a port for
 `ikiwiki` ||

 I suppose we could just have MacPorts download the pre-built app bundle
 (if adding ports for all of these haskell dependencies is too much of an
 issue): http://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/
