git-p4: reinterpret confusing p4 message
Error output will look like this: glom$ git p4 clone //deopt Importing from //deopt into . Reinitialized existing Git repository in /tmp/x/.git/ Doing initial import of //deopt from revision #head into refs/remotes/p4/master p4 returned an error: //deopt/... - must refer to client glom. This particular p4 error is misleading. Perhaps the depot path was misspelled. Depot path: //deopt Signed-off-by: Pete Wyckoff <pw@padd.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
