Rouleau Hi Patrick, what is your goal here? Do you want to convert the repo to Git or do you want to use Git to interact with a P4 repo? I mainly do the former and use the @all switch. You can greatly reduce the time if your `git-p4` machine is close to the P4 server and if you reduce the P4 client spec used for the migration. - Lars
