/usr/libexec/git-core/git-p4

I expect it is that file (or another like it) that cygport is finding and automatically adding the python dependency.

In the past, packages have had to be restructured to extract such non-core commands to avoid this.  In this case, it could be a git-p4 package, just for those rare people who use both Git and Perforce.
