Hi. So - I think the problem is that git-p4 doesn't understand what it is you want to sync. The git-p4.useclientspec flag was created for the purpose where your perforce depot may look like this:
//depot/project1 //depot/project1/source_code //depot/project1/documentation //depot/project1/some_large_collection_of_binaries
Then - if I set up my client spec like:
//depot/... -//depot/project1/some_large_collection_of_binaries
... and do
git p4 sync //depot/project1@all
... it should get all project1 files except the "some_large_collection_of_binaries" subdirectory (provided that you have set the git-p4.client and git-p4.useclientspec).
