Answer 1

For me, it worked:

{% include '/images/my.svg' %}

Just a quick update if you are using Drupal 8 because the code in the previous answer didn't work for me. This is how I did it:

function theme_preprocess_page(&$variables) {
  $svg = file_get_contents(drupal_get_path('theme', 'theme_name') . '/images/my.svg');
  $variables['some_svg'] = $svg;
}

And in the twig file, output using raw filter, or else it will escape the SVG markup:

{{ some_svg|raw }}
