DEVSPACE_CONFIG is not honoured when used with git based dependencies

[jaydeland]

What happened?

• I have DEVSPACE_CONFIG set to devspace-2.yaml and when my dependency is pulled in from git it still tries to use the devspace.yaml
• NOTE: This does work when using path based dependencies

What did you expect to happen instead?
I expected devspace2.yaml to be used

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)

My devspace.yaml:

version: v2beta1
name: app1

vars:
  service_name: ${DEPLOY_NAME}
  MYSQL_HOST: mysql
  MYSQL_DATABASE: ${DEVSPACE_NAME}_development
  MYSQL_PASSWORD: password
  MYSQL_USER: root

imports:
  - git: <REPO>
    subPath: devspace/app
    branch: main

dependencies:
  app-dep1:
    git: <REPO>
    branch: feature/devspace
  app-dep2:
    git: <REPO>
    branch: master

Local Environment:

• DevSpace Version: devspace version 6.3.14
• Operating System: mac
• ARCH of the OS:ARM64

Anything else we need to know?

This isn't a bug but expected behavior when using git based dependencies. Why can't you use path based dependencies for your scenario?
