However, git-p4 appears to try to read all the repo into memory (and
moreover seems to need about twice as much memory as repo).

Once it runs out of swap, it dies (unsurprisingly).

I think it's failing in readP4Files(), where it appears to read the
entire repository in one go with "p4 -G -x - print".

Can I just rework this function to do stuff one file at a time? Or is
that dumb?


I don't know if they were ever accepted into the mainline, but see the
series of patches submitted by Tommy Thorn.
