Subject: Installation failure due to dependency on Git.pm
I can't install due to the dependency on Git.pm which doesn't resolve properly - the CPAN shell thinks that Git.pm is available as part of App-gh 0.553 (http://search.cpan.org/~cornelius/App- gh-0.553/) but the module in that distro with "package Git;" is actually App/gh/Git.pm Searching for the Git module in metacpan (https://metacpan.org/module/Git) gives no results, so I'm kind of stuck.
Git.pm is distributed with Git itself, not on CPAN. It's usually installed for the system Perl. If you're using perlbrew or something, you should be able to copy Git.pm from the system Perl to your Perl's @INC. If your Git didn't come with Git.pm for some reason, download the Git sources and get it from there.

I'm in the middle of switching from Git.pm to Git::Repository, which is on CPAN. I expect to do a release by the end of the week. Meanwhile, CJM's answer should get you going. -- BooK

Git-FastExport v0.09 is now on CPAN. Sorry for the wait. -- BooK
