git is a special package, whose only purpose is to pull a complete git
environment.
The plain git commands are installed thru "git-core"
>From the package description of git:
=========================================================================
This package itself only provides the README of git but with the
packages it requires, it brings you a complete Git environment
including GTK and email interfaces and tools for importing source code
repositories from other revision control systems such as subversion,
CVS, and GNU arch.
=======================================================================
That
- subversion-perl
- cvsps
are not even required by CVS and Subversion themselves does not mean that they
can't be required for git-cvs and git-subversion to work.
If my memory serves me well, our package manager does not seem to support
"Recommended". I think the last time which I saw it (very vague, do not know
the package anymore) it just was mapped to a normal dependency, but that have
changed or it was an error. However, if it supported "Recommended" I should
have heard of it.
BTW, I'm not the maintainer of git, if you want the maintainer to e.g.
rename git to git-full or so (of which I am personally not that fond of),
you can reassign it to him, otherwise I'll close it in a few days.
