After changing the type of a file in the git repository, it is not possible to
"git p4 publish" the commit to perforce. This is due to the fact that the git
"T" status is not handled in git-p4.py. This can typically occur when replacing
an existing file with a symbolic link.
The "T" modifier is now supported in git-p4.py. When a file type has changed,
inform perforce with the "p4 edit -f auto" command.

using git fast-import by writing a "tag" clause to the

If the commit that the tag references has not yet actually
been processed by fast-import, then the tag can't be created
and git-p4 fails to import the P4 label.

Perforce depot may record paths in mixed cases, e.g. "p4 files" may
show that there are these two paths:
//depot/Path/to/file1
//depot/pATH/to/file2
and with "p4" or "p4v", these end up in the same directory, e.g.
//depot/Path/to/file1
//depot/Path/to/file2
which is the desired outcome on case insensitive systems.
If git-p4 is used with client spec "//depot/Path/...", however, then
all files not matching the case in the client spec are ignored (in
the example above "//depot/pATH/to/file2").
Fix this by using the path case that appears first in lexicographical
order when core.ignorecase is set to true. This behavior is consistent
with "p4" and "p4v".

More Perforce row number limit workaround for "git p4".
* ld/p4-changes-block-size:
git-p4: fixing --changes-block-size handling
git-p4: add tests for non-numeric revision range
git-p4: test with limited p4 server results
git-p4: additional testing of --changes-block-size
The --changes-block-size handling was intended to help when
a user has a limited "maxscanrows" (see "p4 group"). It used
"p4 changes -m $maxchanges" to limit the number of results.
Unfortunately, it turns out that the "maxscanrows" and "maxresults"
limits are actually applied *before* the "-m maxchanges" parameter
is considered (experimentally).
Fix the block-size handling so that it gets blocks of changes
limited by revision number ($Start..$Start+$N, etc). This limits
the number of results early enough that both sets of tests pass.
Note that many other Perforce operations can fail for the same
reason (p4 print, p4 files, etc) and it's probably not possible
to workaround this. In the real world, this is probably not
usually a problem.

Perforce allows client side file/directory remapping through
the use of the client view definition that is part of the
user's client spec.
To support this functionality while branch detection is
enabled it is important to determine the branch location in
the workspace such that the correct files are patched before
Perforce submission. Perforce provides a command that
facilitates this process: p4 where.
This patch does two things to fix improve file location
detection when git-p4 has branch detection and use of client
spec enabled:
1. Enable usage of "p4 where" when Perforce branches exist
in the git repository, even when client specification is
used. This makes use of the already existing function
p4Where.
2. Allow identifying partial matches of the branch's depot
path while processing the output of "p4 where". For
robustness, paths will only match if ending in "/...".
