The import-tars script is typically employed to (re)create the past
history of a project from stored tars. Although assigning authorship in
these cases can be a somewhat arbitrary process, it makes sense to set
the author to whoever created the tars in the first place (if it's
known), and (s)he can in general be different from the committer
(whoever is running the script).
Implement this by having separate author and committer data, making them
settable from the usual GIT_* environment variables.

Some users have tabs in their names, oddly enough. This
causes problems when loading the usercache from disk,
as split separates the fields on the wrong tabs. When
fast-import's parse_ident() tries to parse the committer
field, it is unhappy about the unbalanced <..> angle brackets.
It is easy enough to convert the tabs to single spaces.

Unfortunately, I introduced a bug in commit 7f705dc36 (git-p4: Fix bug in
p4Where method). This happens because sometimes the result from
"p4 where <somepath>" doesn't contain a "depotFile" key, but instead a
"data" key that needs further parsing. This commit should ensure that both
of these cases are checked.

When running:
p4 where //depot/SomePath/...
The result can in some situations look like:
//depot/SomePath/... //client/SomePath/... /home/user/p4root/SomePath/...
-//depot/SomePath/UndesiredSubdir/... //client/SomePath/UndesiredSubdir/... /home/user/p4root/SomePath/UndesiredSubdir/...
This depends on the users Client view. The current p4Where method will now
return /home/user/p4root/SomePath/UndesiredSubdir/... which is not what we
want. This patch loops through the results from "p4 where", and picks the one
where the depotFile exactly matches the given depotPath (//depot/SomePath/...
in this example).

Purged files are handled as if they are merely deleted, which is not
entirely optimal, but I don't know of any other way to handle them.
File data is deleted from memory as early as they can, and they are more
efficiently handled, at (significant) cost to CPU usage.
Still need to handle p4 branches with spaces in their names.
Still need to make git-p4 clone more reliable.
- Perhaps with a --continue option. (Sometimes the p4 server kills

I'm working with a perforce repo using git-p4. There are some config
files which I need to change locally according to my environment. I'm
using a 'local' git branch to park these changes. And I want to avoid
accidentally checking them into p4 just by doing "git p4 submit"
mindlessly without realizing which branch I'm actually on.
This patch adds a new git config, 'git-p4.allowSubmit', which is a
whitelist of branch names. "git p4 submit" will only allow submissions
from local branches on the list. Useful for preventing inadvertently
submitting from a strictly local branch.
For backward compatibility, if this config is not set at all,
submissions from all branches are allowed.

A custom diffing utility can be specified for the 'p4 diff' command by
setting the P4DIFF environment variable. However when using a custom
diffing utility such as 'vimdiff' passing options like -du can cause
unexpected behavior.
Since the goal is to generate a unified diff of the changes and attach
them to the bottom of the p4 submit log we should unset P4DIFF if it
has been set in order to generate the diff properly.

Teach git-p4 about the -/ option which adds depot paths to the exclude

Trailing ... on exclude paths are optional.

When using an existing git repository to cache the perforce import we don't
fetch the branch mapping from perforce as that is a slow operation. However
the origin repository may not be fully up-to-date and therefore it may be
necessary to import more changes directly from Perforce.
Such a direct import needs self.knownBranches to be set up though, so
initialize it from the existing p4/* git branches.

This changeset takes advantage of the new parseDiffTreeEntry(...) function to
detect changes to the execute bit in the git repository. During submit, git-p4
now looks for changes to the executable bit and if it finds them it "reopens"
the file in perforce, which allows it to change the file type.
The logic for adding the executable bit in perforce is straightforward: the +x
modifier can be used. Removing the executable bit in perforce requires that the
entire filetype be redefined (there is no way to join remove the bit with a -x
modifier, for example). This changeset includes logic to remove the executable
bit from the full file type while preserving the base file type and other
modifiers.
