Ideally, I would prefer we land something minimal and working in mainline soon, then further collaborate on changes that clean up code and enable more features. My end-game is to have P4 Streams working in git-p4, and maybe LFS-like support that uses p4 as the backend. It would be great to not be the only one spending effort in that direction.I have similar goals. I would love to get the smallest set of non-breaking changes in that allows the program to basically work with Python 3.5+. My rush has been because I need to use git-p4 for work and have been working on the project at the office. Once I reach a point where I am able to generally work (when t9800 is complete) I'll really not be free to spend too much work time on the project, but I am eager to see this through!
I'm in a similar situation, but we use p4 Streams and so I actually need further development before being able to make a full switch. I am given more liberty in terms of how much work time I can dedicate to this, though. Given the situation, can you give my patch set a try in your work environment? It is currently passing everything except t9824-git-p4-git-lfs. If you're OK with it, I would prefer that we work from my version as a base and add some of your quality-of-life enhancements on top. I can do the merges myself if you are pressed for time. Thanks, Yang
