Hello Ian,
Thanks for your reply.

> What exactly did you try?
I am not at my work computer now, but as I remember:

cd workdir git-p4 clone //depot/projectdir/...@all . git clone myprojectrepo .

(Everything went fine till this point.)

git-p4 sync git-p4 submit Fatal error...

I don't remember the exact message, but it tried to reach a non-existing git commit (HEAD~xx, where xx was count of my commits, so it tried to refer to a commit before my initial commit). I tried to change the order of the clone steps, but the result was the same.

Rgds,
Endre
