Which repository did git-core get installed from? – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams May 4 '10 at 6:43
git.i386 1.5.2.1-1.el4.rf – dhaval May 4 '10 at 6:56
Note that yum doesn't exist in RHEL-4, maybe you meant CentOS-4? Also, personally, I wouldn't use/recommend rpmforge ... you're likely to have better luck with EPEL. – James Antill May 5 '10 at 21:55

Do a

yum provides */git

This will tell you which package provides the git command itself. It's possible your git-core is just a bundle of common libraries and the like rather than git itself.
