Stash rejects (hard check of 2.0.2 and 2.0.3) to use this specific git version due to a critical bug in 'git diff-tree' which breaks Stash's commit page. Please see the 'DVCS clients' section on their system requirements page:

Hi Sebastian,

You can downgrade with a svn checkout of the respective revision of
devel/git you want.

Does 2.0.4 / 2.1.0 contain a fix for your issue? Can you point us to the
changelog entry, changeset, or upstream issue?

Other steps from here (given your urgency), are to:

a) Submit a bug report at https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/ so the
maintainer is made aware of the issue

b) Update the port yourself in the meantime (run a local patch to devel/git)

If you manage to get (b) done before you hear back from (a), attach your
patch from (b) updating devel/git to 2.1.0 to the issue you created.

If you need help or more information porting, we also have IRC channels
on efnet (#bsdports) and freenode (#freebsd-ports)
