Commit fed2369 (git-p4: Search for parent commit on branch creation, 2012-01-25) uses temporary branches to help find the parent of a new p4 branch. The temp branches are of the form "git-p4-tmp/%d" for some p4 change number. Mistakenly, this string was made using os.path.join() instead of just string concatenation. On windows, this turns into a backslash (\), which is not allowed in git branch names.
