I want to install Git but it gives me error.

I enter make clean install and it says:

===>  git-2.1.0 using GITWEB support requires PERL support.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/git

What can I do?

Note: When I first tried to install Git, I didn't choose PERL, and I choose GITWEB. Then it gave me this error above. Now, I cannot get rid of this error.

Simply do "pkg install git", as root.
