A P4 repository can get into a state where it contains a file with
type UTF-16 that does not contain a valid UTF-16 BOM. If git-p4
attempts to retrieve the file then the process crashes with a
"Translation of file content failed" error.

Ehh, do we need perl here ?
This will invoke a process-fork, which costs time and cpu load.
The following works for me:
printf '\227\000\227\000' >file1
