Description:
git does not list "perl-term-readkey" as an optional dependency, which is used when typing authentication information in git svn.
If one tries to do a git svn dcommit to a SVN-repository which requires HTTP-authentication, you get an error message stating that it cannot find Term::ReadKey, and the operation fails.
Installing "perl-term-readkey" resolves this.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
1.6.1-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
- initialise a git tree from a SVN-repository using HTTP authentication with "git svn"
- make some changes and commit them to git
- attempt to commit these changes to SVN using "git svn dcommit" without the "perl-term-readkey" package.
This task depends upon
