Re: git p4 clone not processing branches properly

[Matthieu Brucher <matthieu.brucher@gmail.com>]

Without the spec client, it seems that the branches are recognized,
but there are some many binary files that I need to remove them during
the migration.
I tried setting a .gitignore beforehand, but it is not respected (I
tried to remove some folders with folder/ in .gitignore, but the
folder are still imported).
It there a switch for the import somewhere?

Thanks,

Matthieu
