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.
