Description:

git requires perl-term-readkey when it asks for user input

Found when trying to enter a password for a `git svn dcommit`

Password for 'lordaro': Can't locate Term/ReadKey.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Term::ReadKey module) (@INC contains: /usr/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl .) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Git.pm line 565.

Installing the perl-term-readkey package fixes this
