True. For now I have these cases covered by wrapper scripts. The minimum
I need from git-p4 is just not to fail on git submit from bare
repository which is covered by patch I have submitted. If I get my
solution enough testing, I'd think of transforming it into patch for
git-p4.py as well.

Could you change the patch to add a command-line option to suppress
the rebase? I think this would be a bit more obvious: instead of
having some special magical behaviour kick-in on a bare repo, git-p4
just does what it's told on the command-line.

It means that if we find another situation where we don't want to
rebase, we don't have an ever-growing list of special-case
circumstances, which could become hard to make sense of in future.
Instead, the user (who hopefully knows better) just tells git-p4 what
to do.

Thanks!
