The operations in GitHub.app will always use their own tools and they also bundle their own version of git. Although I don't know if this will be symlinked on older releases of OS X. If your PATH lists /opt/local/bin before /usr/local/bin (which is the default configuration), git-lfs from the port will already take preference. There is nothing to worry about here, as the git file format is meant to be stable and you should be able to work with any version of git on the same local repository.
