I'm not sure about "<tree-ish>:<path>" with <path> being relative by
default. For me it is <path> in <tree-ish> (like in
"git-ls-tree -r <tree-ish>" result).

That's right (and Dscho is also).

"v1.5.1:git.c" IS "git.c that appears at the toplevel of
v1.5.1's tree."

Ok, for now let's forget about this relative stuff.

Hmm, most of the work I do in the parts of our
perforce repository I want to convert to git is
far enough down...

The key word in my statement is "for now".  I simply declared
that I do not want to think about it further until 1.5.2 final,
that's all.

I am not opposed to give an escape hatch for your problem; I am
quite in favor of that, and I think Alex/J6t's "./" syntax is a
reasonable compromise.
