Hi great "git crew" member :)
I found small, but annoying bug in 'git svn'. If you would try to make
any commit with new files (or delete/modify files) which contain in
name "@" sign - you'll see crash with minimum information about what's
just happened. Such file names are very useful for iOS projects when
you can add same pictures with different dimensions with suffix @2x or
@3x. In guts, svn uses "@" sign for pin version of file and it's
probably confused if this sign presented in file name. For committing
such changes thru svn you would use "svn add 'image@3x.png'@". This
will prevent such problem.

I hope you can easily find out how to reproduce and fix this issue.
Please, feel free to contact me for any details about this.

Best regards

```

I even found Pull Request on GitHub with useful changes, but looks
like there is too hard way to commit changes and author gave up.
https://github.com/git/git/pull/62 Probably you can take a short look
into it and include this changes in next release.
