I don't think so, that package hasn't been renamed or anything like
that.  As long as the installed.db and the *.lst.gz files are OK, it
should find these.  Here's what I get from "cygport git pkg":

>>> git requires: bash libcurl4 libexpat1 libgcc1 libiconv2 libintl8 libopenssl100 libpcre1 perl perl-Error perl-TermReadKey perl_base python zlib0 cygutils less openssh rsync

Basically it looks for executable and scripts and determines which
packages these belong to by looking at the package list files.  For Perl
scripts in particular it then tries to find out which modules are used
and then which package these belong to.
