importing directly from p4 is considerably slower than pulling changes
from a git remote, this can be useful in a multi-developer environment.
+If there are multiple branches, doing 'git p4 sync' will automatically
+use the "BRANCH DETECTION" algorithm to try to partition new changes
+into the right branch. This can be overridden with the '--branch'
+option to specify just a single branch to update.
