In terminal I ran:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
and
killall Finder
If I CMD + SHIFT + G /usr/local/.git
I can see the folder.
However, if I CMD + SHIFT + G and go to /usr/local
I cannot see the folder.

You have to let Finder know that you want a Boolean value (true or false):
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool TRUE
Shift-Command-Period shows and hides the files in open/save dialogs, it might work in the main Finder.
