Hi Git,
            When I use "git p4 unshelve 4495953", it failed.
	I have fixed this issue locally. You can check the attached for details.
What have I done to fix this:
            It's because the line#4240 in function "findLastP4Revision" of git-p4.py:
                        log = extractLogMessageFromGitCommit("{0}^{1}".format(starting_point, parent))
I think it should be:
            log = extractLogMessageFromGitCommit("{0}~{1}".format(starting_point, parent))

Best Regards, Jackson(Xuhui) Liu

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)
I want to get shelved changelist 4495953.
What happened instead? (Actual behavior)
It failed.
Here is the output log:

    raise Exception(msg)

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?
I want it to sync 4495953, but it failed.
Anything else you want to add:
I have fixed it locally.
It's because the line#4240 in function "findLastP4Revision" of git-p4.py:
     log = extractLogMessageFromGitCommit("{0}^{1}".format(starting_point, parent))
I think it should be:
     log = extractLogMessageFromGitCommit("{0}~{1}".format(starting_point, parent))
