For a clone or sync, --branch says where the newly imported
branch should go, or which existing branch to sync up. It
takes an argument, which is currently either something that
starts with "refs/", or if not, "refs/heads/p4" is prepended.
Putting it in heads seems like a bad default; these should
go in remotes/p4/ in most situations. Make that the new default,
and be more liberal in the form of the branch name.

--branch <branch>::
Import changes into given branch. If the branch starts with
- 'refs/', it will be used as is, otherwise the path 'refs/heads/'
- will be prepended. The default branch is 'p4/master'.
+ 'refs/', it will be used as is. Otherwise if it does not start
+ with 'p4/', that prefix is added. The branch is assumed to
+ name a remote tracking, but this can be modified using

This example imports a new remote "p4/proj2" into an existing
