[p4] Re: Visual SourceSafe (VSS) to Perforce - some questions (long)

It would be nice if we could override any of the client settings on a
command e.g. if we set the client to noclobber but want to set clobber for a
specific command.

It seems that with the P4CONFIG file support, there ought to be an
easy way to override the client root setting.  It'd be real nice to be
able to override the client root setting in the P4CONFIG file by
specifing a root directory relative to the directory containing the
P4CONFIG file.  Then, I could put

	P4ROOT=.

in the P4CONFIG file that I stick at my root and be able to do 'p4'
commands in that tree no matter how I got there (symlinks, Windoze
'SUBST'/'NET USE' drive letters, UNC paths, whatever).
