I'm new\nto Perforce and have been trying to learn just enough about it to get\nthrough this migration. Anyway, I've been playing with git-p4 and have run\ninto something with it I don't understand.\n\nAfter setting up the p4 cli client I can 'p4 sync' some //depot/main/app1\ndepot/folder which pulls down the files I would expect from the Perforce\nserver. If I use 'git p4 clone //depot/main/app1', I get:\n\n\"Doing initial import of //depot/main/app1/ from revision #head into\nrefs/remotes/p4/master\"\n\nBut I don't get any files from that depot/folder pulled down. I can git p4\nclone other depot/folders though and get some files. I suspect that I'm just\nnot understanding how the git-p4 module works.\n\nBasically, I'm hoping to setup a live sync of Perforce to Git of certain\ndepots in preparation for the migration. Also, if anyone has pointers or\nguides for this type of migration, any help is appreciated.\n"}]}
