The git-p4 'clone' subcommand has long had the option to specify
parts of the repo to be excluded, on the command line. But this has
not been present in 'sync', which makes it less than useful: as
soon as you do a sync, the excluded parts start being repopulated
as those directories are changed.

(You can achieve the same effect by using a client specification to
do the exclusion, but that's then an extra step).

The code for doing the exclusion is actually all present in the base
'P4Sync' class: this change turns that on by moving the definition
of the command-line switch.

It also updates the documentation and adds a test-case.

Thanks,
Luke

And yes, I'm back to using version control systems other than git :-(
