A recent updates to "git p4" was not usable for older p4 but it
could be made to work with minimum changes. Do so.
* ls/p4-retry-thrice:
git-p4: do not pass '-r 0' to p4 commands
git-p4 crashes when used with a very old p4 client version
that does not support the '-r <number>' option in its commands.
Allow making git-p4 work with old p4 clients by setting git-p4.retries to 0.
Alternatively git-p4.retries could be made opt-in.
But since only very old, barely maintained p4 versions don't support
the '-r' option, the setting-retries-to-0 workaround would do.
The "-r retries" option is present in Perforce 2012.2 Command Reference,
but absent from Perforce 2012.1 Command Reference.

"git p4" didn't interact with the internal of .git directory
correctly in the modern "git-worktree"-enabled world.
* ld/p4-worktree:
git-p4: support git worktrees
When importing from multiple perforce paths - we may attempt to
import a changelist that contains files from two (or more) of these
depot paths. Currently, this results in multiple git commits - one
containing the changes, and the other(s) as empty commit(s). This
behavior was introduced in commit 1f90a64891 ("git-p4: reduce number
of server queries for fetches", 2015-12-19).
Reproduction Steps:
1. Have a git repo cloned from a perforce repo using multiple
depot paths (e.g. //depot/foo and //depot/bar).
2. Submit a single change to the perforce repo that makes changes
in both //depot/foo and //depot/bar.
3. Run "git p4 sync" to sync the change from #2.
Change is synced as multiple commits, one for each depot path that
was affected.
Using a set, instead of a list inside p4ChangesForPaths() ensures
that each changelist is unique to the returned list, and therefore
only a single commit is generated for each changelist.

Git-P4 used to place temporary refs under "git-p4-tmp". Since 3da1f37
Git checks that all refs are placed under "refs". Instruct Git-P4 to
place temporary refs under "refs/git-p4-tmp". There are no backwards
compatibility considerations as these refs are transient.
Use "git show-ref --verify" to check the (non-)existience of the refs
instead of file checks assuming the file-based ref backend.

desired for temporary Git-P4 refs and will be adressed in a later patch.

an existing file with a symbolic link.
