Re: [PATCHv1] git-p4: workaround p4 removal of client directory

> On some platforms, "p4 sync -f" will remove the workspace
> directory after we have just created it; on some it won't.
> This causes problems later when git finds itself in an
> orphaned directory.

> Workaround this by cd'ing back to the directory after
