I'm using git-p4 to import and work with upstream p4
repositories. Some of the files are ktext, meaning they expect
expansion of $Id$ and similar identifiers.
Using the filter driver for this file, I can do the "clean" part
easily, but to calculate the "smudge" correctly, I need to know
the filename inside the filter driver.
E.g., inside file foo/Makefile, the clean line:
# $File$
should be smudged into:
# $File: //depot/project/foo/Makefile $
I know the //depot/project location from context in the commit
log message that git-p4 produces. But I don't know the pathname
in the git repo that my smudge script is working on.
Would it make sense to pass that on the command line? E.g.
[filter "p4"]
clean = git-p4smudge --clean %s
smudge = git-p4smudge --smudge %s
Or maybe put the path in an environment variable?
