 > Why was the dependency changed from perl5.22 to perl5.24? I don't see
 anything in the
 [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/maint/Documentation/RelNotes/2.10.0.txt
 release notes] about a change upstream. It's annoying because I already
 have two versions of Perl installed and would rather not have a third!

 MacPorts' intention is to have all ports that depend on perl5 depend on
 the latest stable version which is perl5.24. We're currently in the
 process of switching all perl dependencies from perl5.22 to perl5.24 which
 was released last May.  See #52081.  These are the only two versions of
 Perl that are supported (with perl modules) at the moment.  Not sure how
 you got to three unless you're counting the system perl that comes with
 macOS.
