""" Step 2: Download Git-p4

Recommended version is ermshiperete’s branch, which is available from:

https://github.com/ermshiperete/git-p4

Note: Omit the “git-p4.py25” file, which is an older version that is no longer
needed.
Avoid Kernel.org’s Version of Git-p4

Git’s main source at http://git-scm.com/download and http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ contains an older version of Git-p4 with limitations that ermshiperete’s branch avoids. """

I can almost guess _who_ wrote this KB ;)

But this is really frustrating. Why can't people just cooperate to make sure the version in the main branch is the latest?
