Hello,

I have a setup where I have a remote non-bare repo cloned from a
perforce workspace. It is used as a remote repo that people clone into
their own user repos, make commits to, then push back into the remote
repo.
Why is your p4 clone non-bare? I thought pushing into a non-bare repo tended to cause problems?

:-)



git checkout -f
git clean -f
git p4 rebase --import-labels
git p4 submit -M --export-labels
git checkout -f
git clean -f

Sometimes, always after commits from one user's machine specifically,
I get the following error below when pushing back to perforce at the
remote repo. It seems to happen randomly, or at least intermittently,
since I often can't discern any major error during git committing to
the remote repo that precipitates this error. It does happen pretty
reliably when I get a file conflict that I resolve and fix during
committing though.

When you have resolved this problem run "git rebase --continue".
If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git rebase --skip".
To check out the original branch and stop rebasing run "git rebase --abort".

The patch is usually one that is already in the remote git repo and in
perforce. At that point I have to run git rebase --skip, to skip the
patch, then rerun the commands in the script again. Sometimes it's
multiple patches that cause this problem and I have to run git rebase
--skip repeatedly. When I check the working copy of the remote repo, I
don't see any changes, no conflict markers, just the file.

The real problem happens when I run git rebase --continue. Usually I
end up with repeated submits in perforce when I do that, which is
obviously a corruption of data.

It sounds a lot like this error, except I don't know how git p4 is
branching, so I don't know how to diagnose it.

I also asked stack overflow and someone there said it's probably the
perforce user being different from the git user info, so I had all the
git users switch to having the same info as the perforce user info and
that did NOT solve the problem.

I'm not sure what could possibly be causing this or how to fix it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
