I want to use git to interact with a P4 repo. I am used to git tools and I prefer them to P4V. Visual Studio is also slower with P4 plugin and I hate P4 approach to check out a file before modifying it. The .sln files always get check outed for no reason.

I am working remotely. The P4 server is behind a VPN. That one reason I am trying to clone from some point in the past. I also want to have some history to see from where come the code and from who.

Regards, P. Rouleau
