Template problem

[Ned]

So this works from the command line:

  script/plugin install git://github.com/rails/acts_as_tree.git

BUT this doesn't work inside a template:

  plugin "acts_as_tree", :git=>"git://github.com/rails/
acts_as_tree.git", :submodule=>true

The error I get is:

  fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

I have nothing else in my template!

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Using rails 2.3.2

thanks

Slightly confused since I've noticed other templates using the same
call:

http://github.com/jazen/rails-app-template/blob/54fa16b7aca8400863c7b5507ebc687574089b54/template.rb

IE: plugin "acts_as_tree", :git=>"git://github.com/rails/
acts_as_tree.git", :submodule=>true

Frustrating.... not sure if rails or my installation
