I can't remember if this still is undocumented... and if I already
reported that this is missing to be documented.
Also can't remember where I found that it can look like this, most
likely underneith ports/Mk:
.if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MGITT}
RUN_DEPENDS= git:${PORTSDIR}/devel/git@tiny
.endif
It's from one of my local meta-ports.
As far as I remember, it worked as intended.
