Definition:
   $Conditions['exists'] = "PageExists(\$condparm)";

So you need to write (:if exists Group.Name:)
Sorry I wrote (:if exist ....
Maybe the definition should be changed to
   $Conditions['exist'] = "PageExists(\$condparm)";

So, after changing the definition, back to your code:

> (:if exist {$Group}.SideBar:)(:include {$Group}.SideBar:)
This can be replaced simply with
   (:include {$Group}.SideBar:)
since the include will only include the group's SideBar if there is
one :)

I think the last line should go.
If there is a Group.SideBar then $SiteGroup.SideBar will not be
included, fair enough.
But if a $SiteGroup.SideBar does not exist, Site.SideBar will be
included, regardless if  a Group.SideBar exists.
