Once the patch is submitted and tested, it's effectively zero extra
work.  Yaakov has now submitted a patch for this, so I just need to
test that works as expected (and in particular nothing non-p4 related is
obviously broken if the new git-p4 package isn't installed), then I'll
be able to publish it.

As I've said elsewhere, my time as Git maintainer is currently focused
on getting the latest upstream release working on Cygwin at all, so it
may be a short while before I can do the testing, but it will hopefully
happen soon...
