--- When testing git-svn changes, I'll often use git-svn.perl directly on a repository of mine, to see how things work. Recently I had this happen:

$ git-svn.perl info Use of uninitialized value in scalar chomp at ../git/git-svn.perl line 1202. Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ../git/git-svn.perl line 1203.

but the expected output showed up correctly, giving the SVN-like info.

git svn info appeared to work just fine though, despite there being essentially no difference between the two. However, if I do the following, this is what I see:

$ env /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn info Can't exec "git-config": No such file or directory at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 1202. Use of uninitialized value in scalar chomp at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 1202.

Again, the SVN info would still appear.
Regardless, I think we want to change this call to use the non-dashed form.
