git-p4.py: support Python 2.5
Python 2.5 and older do not accept None as the first argument to translate() and complain with: TypeError: expected a character buffer object As suggested by Pete Wyckoff, let's just replace the call to translate() with a regex search which should be more clear and more portable. This allows git-p4 to be used with Python 2.5. Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <bcasey@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
