Re: [PATCH 1/2] git-p4: print size values in appropriate units

> The git-p4 script reports file sizes in various log messages.
> Previously, in each case the script would print them as the number of
> bytes divided by 1048576 i.e. the size in mebibytes, rounded down to
> an integer.  This resulted in small files being described as having a
> size of "0 MB".
> 
> This patch replaces the existing behaviour with a new helper function:
> format_size_human_readable, which takes a number of bytes (or any
> other quantity), and computes the appropriate prefix to use: none,
> Ki, Mi, Gi, Ti, Pi, Ei, Zi, Yi.
> 
> For example, a size of 123456 will now be printed as "120.6 KiB"
> greatly improving the readability of the log output.
> 
> Large valued prefixes such as pebi, exbi, zebi and yobi are included
> for completeness, though they not expected to appear in any real-world
> Perforce repository!
