No, portsnap does not support Git.  I would recommend using net/gitup from ports
instead and altering the "ports" section in /usr/local/etc/gitup.conf to look
like this:
....
"ports" : {
	"repository" : "ports.git",
	"branch"     : "main",
	"target"     : "/usr/ports",
	"ignores"    : [
		"distfiles",
		"packages",
	],
},
....
