From: Gary Gibbons <ggibbons@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Submitting patches back to p4 requires a p4 "client". This is a mapping from server depot paths into a local directory. The directory need not exist or be populated with files; only the mapping on the server is required. When there is no directory, make git-p4 automatically create it.
