This example imports a new remote "p4/proj2" into an existing
git repository:

----
$ git init
$ git p4 sync --branch=refs/remotes/p4/proj2 //depot/proj2
--silent::
Do not print any progress information.
---verbose::
- Provide more progress information.
-
--detect-labels::
Query p4 for labels associated with the depot paths, and add
- them as tags in git.
+ them as tags in git. Limited usefulness as only imports labels
+ associated with new changelists. Deprecated.
+
+--import-labels::
+ Import labels from p4 into git.
--import-local::
By default, p4 branches are stored in 'refs/remotes/p4/',
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These options can be used to modify 'git p4 submit' behavior.
---verbose::
- Provide more progress information.
-
--origin <commit>::
Upstream location from which commits are identified to submit to
p4. By default, this is the most recent p4 commit reachable
Re-author p4 changes before submitting to p4. This option
requires p4 admin privileges.
+--export-labels::
+ Export tags from git as p4 labels. Tags found in git are applied
+ to the perforce working directory.

+--import-labels::

DEPOT PATH SYNTAX
-----------------
enabled. Each entry should be a pair of branch names separated
by a colon (:). This example declares that both branchA and
branchB were created from main:
++
-------------
git config git-p4.branchList main:branchA
git config --add git-p4.branchList main:branchB
-------------
+git-p4.ignoredP4Labels::
+ List of p4 labels to ignore. This is built automatically as
+ unimportable labels are discovered.
+
+git-p4.importLabels::
+ Import p4 labels into git, as per --import-labels.
+
+git-p4.labelImportRegexp::
+ Only p4 labels matching this regular expression will be imported. The
+ default value is '[a-zA-Z0-9_\-.]+$'.
+
git-p4.useClientSpec::
Specify that the p4 client spec should be used to identify p4
depot paths of interest. This is equivalent to specifying the
user map, 'git p4' exits. This option can be used to force
submission regardless.
-git-p4.attemptRCSCleanup:
- If enabled, 'git p4 submit' will attempt to cleanup RCS keywords
- ($Header$, etc). These would otherwise cause merge conflicts and prevent
- the submit going ahead. This option should be considered experimental at
- present.
