The newest version of git-core was briefly removing /dev/null from the system 
during it's build, Ryan checked in a fix for it a day or two ago.  I'm guessing 
this was causing both your problems with ports and with things like Chrome, 
unix-like systems become pretty unhappy when /dev/null doesn't exist.  
Rebooting will restore the device, and selfupdating will get a version of the 
git-core port which doesn't remove it when installing.

Thanks,
Eric
