Hi Junio,

Having caught up on some list emails, it appears that Git now has a much better option for importing from Perforce in the git-p4 front end to fast-import.

Is there anyone out there actually even using git-p4import? It was written for a very specific case, by a git wannabe hacker who had never used Perforce before, and not intended for inclusion in Git proper...

My guess is that it could be removed outright without pain to anyone, but as a first step, it could be moved into contrib for 1.5.3.
