Subject: git-p4 submit, Can't clobber writable file
Message-ID: <40586.80065.qm@web37902.mail.mud.yahoo.com>


I followed the instructions at http://modular.math.washington.edu/home/mhansen/git-1.5.5.1/contrib/fast-import/git-p4.txt

But, I am not able to git-p4 submit. Any idea?

git-p4 clone //build/scripts build_scripts
cd build_scripts
vi foo.h
git commit foo.h
git-p4 rebase
git-p4 submit

  from sets import Set;
Perforce checkout for depot path //build/scripts/ located at /home/gyang/workspace/build_scripts/
Syncronizing p4 checkout...
//build/scripts/foo.h#1 - added as /home/gyang/workspace/build_scripts/foo.h
Can't clobber writable file /home/gyang/workspace/build_scripts/foo.h
//build/scripts/foo.c#1 - added as /home/gyang/workspace/build_scripts/foo.c
Can't clobber writable file /user/home/gyang/workspace/build_scripts/foo.c
......
command failed: p4 sync ...

Thanks.
