I'm using Emacs-P4 Integration v10.5 and GNU Emacs 21.3.1. How do I
convince emacs to NOT make backup (~) files when editing a file under
p4 control? With CVS, the emacs VC mode knew to do this automatically.
I'm sure the answer has something to do with writing a p4-hook
function which sets make-backup-files to nil, but I can't quite get
the right incantation, especially with regard to making sure that
backups are only turned off in buffers which contain P4 files.
