I have PHP on running on an AS400. Can Git be also be installed on an AS400? I'd like to use it to maintain version control.

A: 

To the best of my knowledge, there is currently not a package that can be directly installed on the server.

However, it may be possible if you are willing to put in the work to get it to run in PASE (which is the unix equivalent in iOS/5).

You will need an AIX version to run in PASE (qsh). I do not believe this to be an officially supported platform for git (somehow those who REALLY like git, do not happen to work with IBM system with an entrance fee).

A: 

What are you looking to do change control on with git?

Just the PHP source ... or native code as well?

I know that Subversion has been ported to IBM i quite successfully.

For native code, however, I wouldn't suggest an IFS based source control system ... you want to go with a system that's designed to handle native source & objects.
