Issue with git p4 clone when using multiple depots and multiple branches

Hi,
We have a perforce structure at work that looks like this:
//depot/basic/{main,branch1,branch2}/component{1,2}
//depot/extra/{main,branch1,branch2}/extra{1,2}
I'm trying to create 3 branches, i.e. main/branch1/branch2, with all
sub-components together, i.e. component1/component2/extra1/extra2.
For this reason I have created a p4 client, with all 12 paths used like this:
//depot/basic/main/component1/... //client.name/main/component1/...
//depot/basic/main/component2/... //client.name/main/component2/...
//depot/basic/extra/extra1/... //client.name/main/extra1/...
//depot/basic/extra/extra2/... //client.name/main/extra2/...
... similar also for branch1 and branch2.
I have setup my git using these:
git config git-p4.clientclient.name
git config git-p4.branchList main/extra1
git config --add main/extra2make
The problem is that all //depot/extra paths are ignored when I'm
running the following commandgit p4 clone --use-client-spec --detect-branches //depot/basic@all //depot/extra@all --destination project
I think the issue is in git-p4 and especially in importNewBranch. Instead of using: """ branchPrefix = self.depotPaths[0] + branch + "/" self.branchPrefixes = [ branchPrefix ] """ We should be using """ self.branchPrefixes = [x + branch + "/" for x in self.depotPaths] """ Same also for "p4ChangesForPaths([branchPrefix], ..." What do you think? Thanks, Nikos -- =Do- N.AND
