On a daily work with multiple local git branches, the usual way to
submit only a specified commit was to cherry-pick the commit on
master then run git-p4 submit. It can be very annoying to switch
between local branches and master, only to submit one commit. The
proposed new way is to select directly the commit you want to
submit.
Add option --commit to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to submit
only specified commit(s) in p4.
On a daily work developping software with big compilation time, one
may not want to rebase on his local git tree, in order to avoid long
recompilation.
Add option --disable-rebase to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to
disable rebase after submission.

--update-shelve can now be specified multiple times on the
command-line, to update multiple shelved changelists in a single
submit.
This then means that a git patch series can be mirrored to a
sequence of shelved changelists, and (relatively easily) kept in
sync as changes are made in git.
Note that Perforce does not really support overlapping shelved
changelists where one change touches the files modified by
another. Trying to do this will result in merge conflicts.

git-p4 was using "git name-rev" to find out the current branch.
That is not safe, since if multiple branches or tags point at
the same revision, the result obtained might not be what is
expected.
Instead use "git symbolic-ref".

Using name-rev to find the current git branch means that git-p4
does not correctly get the current branch name if there are
multiple branches pointing at HEAD, or a tag.
This change adds a test case which demonstrates the problem.
Configuring which branches are allowed to be submitted from goes
wrong, as git-p4 gets confused about which branch is in use.
This appears to be the only place that git-p4 actually cares
about the current branch.

Adds new option "--update-shelve CHANGELIST" which updates
an existing shelved changelist.
The original changelist must have been created by the current user.
This allows workflow something like:
hack hack hack
git commit
git p4 submit --shelve
$mail interested parties about shelved changelist
make corrections
git commit --amend
git p4 submit --update-shelve $CHANGELIST
$mail interested parties about shelved changelist

When "p4 submit" command fails in P4Submit.applyCommit, the
workspace is left with the changes. We already have code to revert
the changes to the workspace when the user decides to cancel
submission by aborting the editor that edits the change description,
and we should treat the "p4 submit" failure the same way.
Clean the workspace if p4_write_pipe raised SystemExit, so that the
user don't have to do it themselves.

The helper function test_i18ngrep pretends that it found the expected
results when it is running under GETTEXT_POISON. For this reason, it must
not be used negated like so
! test_i18ngrep foo bar
because the test case would fail under GETTEXT_POISON. The function offers
a special syntax to test that a pattern is *not* found:
test_i18ngrep ! foo bar
Convert incorrect uses to this syntax.

The diff information render the spec file unusable as is by p4,
do not include it when run with --prepare-p4-only so that the
given file can be directly passed to p4.
With --prepare-p4-only, git-p4 already tells the user it can use
p4 submit with the generated spec file. This fails because of the
diff being present in the file. Not including the diff fixes that.
Without --prepare-p4-only, keeping the diff makes sense for a
quick review of the patch before submitting it. And does not cause
problems with p4 as we remove it programmatically.

Commit e9df0f9 (git p4: cygwin p4 client does not mark read-only,

There are some old versions of p4, compiled for cygwin, that
treat read-only files differently.
Normally, a file that is not open is read-only, meaning that
"test -w" on the file is false. This works on unix, and it works
on windows using the NT version of p4. The cygwin version
of p4, though, changes the permissions, but does not set the
windows read-only attribute, so "test -w" returns false.
Notice this oddity and make the tests work, even on cygiwn.

P4 has a feature called "jobs" that allows linking changes
to a bug tracking system or other tasks. When submitting
code, a job name can be specified to mark that this change
is associated with a particular job.
Teach git-p4 to find an optional "Jobs:" line in git commit
messages and use them to make a Jobs section in the p4
change specifitation.

The way rename works is with a "p4 integrate", optionally
followed by a "p4 edit" if the change is not a 100% rename.
Contents are generated by applying a patch, not doing a file
system rename. Copy is similar.
In this case, p4 does not fix the permissions back to read-only.
Make sure this happens by calling "p4 sync -f".

The code to auto-create the client directory, added in 0591cfa
(git-p4: ensure submit clientPath exists before chdir,
2011-12-09), works when the client directory never existed.
But if the directory is summarily removed without telling p4,
the sync operation will not bring back all the files. Always
do "sync -f" if the client directory is newly created.
