Git-p4 at least helps people who have no choice but to use p4, e.g., when working in a corporate environment. It's been a big help developing git-p4 inside the git source tree already. Having git-p4 be an installed component would make it easier on users. "make install" puts the script where it goes. Or better, they get it through their OS distribution. -- Pete -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
