Feature request: submit to p4 about git-p4s HOT 1 OPEN

Currently the best way is to create a patch and apply it on P4 workspace followed by reconcile.

Submit is a feature I didn't account for in the time constrains I had. While it should not be particularly hard to implement there are nasty parts to consider. One needs to have a P4 workspace to operate in (unless there is a better way?). Perhaps it would be sufficient to create temporary workspace and only sync the files which actually need update and destroy it after use to make the process relatively lightweight.

Different medatada format was a design choice made in particular not to deal with interoperability issues since git-p4s is not feature compatibile with the original. The latter may mix several depot paths in a single git branch as it supports non-streamed depots and also uses different branch naming. These would make it troublesome.
