I'm performing migration from perforce to git using git p4. I need to keep sync my git repo with perforce server. I just need to know where does git-p4 store information about perforce depot after git p4 clone and later that use for git p4 sync.

          For the basic setup, git p4 uses the standard client configuration of the P4 tool chain. You can overwrite that using P4 Git configuration options if you need.



          When using git p4 sync git relies on P4 depo syntax + the client configuration to figure out where to pull the changes from.



          If you're wondering where the actual revisions created from the P4 CLs, they are all put into refs/remotes/p4/master
