Using git-svn with Symfony2's deps installer
I work a lot with Symfony2's deps file for installing 3rd party bundles into my project (yeah I know, I should be using Composer, right?). This works really well when working with pure Git. However, when you're not using Git on it's own but instead use git-svn, you may run into some issues when issuing git svn dcommit, such as:
2d35d2c11c4cfdf66e09ca216b5f8896f8f04af5 doesn't exist in the repository at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 4817
Failed to read object 2d35d2c11c4cfdf66e09ca216b5f8896f8f04af5 at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 595
This appears to be due to the fact that there are git repositories inside the git repository, which git doesn't mind but Subversion does.
