I meant "spec" instead of "view". As in - -use-client-spec.

In perforce you need to configure your workspace using a client specification.
One of the configured values is the client view, which maps files/folders in the
server to locations in your local workspace. What I'm trying to fix with these
patches is the ability of git-p4 to process the client view definition through
the use of "p4 where" to determine the correct location of the local files, such
that it is able to apply the necessary patches for submission to the perforce
server.

While thinking about client views I completely forgot that the git-p4 argument
that enables thos feature uses "spec" and not "view".
