Install the Haskell Platform from [[http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html]].
The version provided by Macports is too old to work with current versions of git-annex.
Then execute
<pre>
sudo port install git-core ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils pcre
sudo ln -s /opt/local/include/pcre.h /usr/include/pcre.h # This is hack that allows pcre-light to find pcre
sudo cabal update
cabal install git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin
</pre>
