Folks from the VS team discovered an interesting bug and I wanted to understand 
if this is something that we would like to fix in Cordova

Tl;Dr; - Cordova 3.6.0 version only seems to support Git 1.9.0. Git 1.8.3 seems 
to have issues. Should we simply document this and leave it, or should we try 
to add support for git 1.8.3 also?

Details

Here is the error you will see when trying to install a plugin from a git URI 
with 1.8.3:

C:\>cordova plugin add https://github.com/a
pache/cordova-plugin-camera.git
