From the INSTALL file:

the approriate "NO_<LIBRARY>=YesPlease" to the make command line or
config.mak file.
- "zlib", the compression library. Git won't build without it.
...
It would be quite appropriate then for git's configure script to *fail*
if zlib and zlib headers are not present. The OP would have known what
was wrong much earlier (and likely with a more useful error message) if
that had happened.
