P4 is ok even if I find it buggy and slow.
Ironically, what files count for p4ignore isn't even centrally configurable. You can't configure diff tools or merge strategies centrally either.
Because every commit has to hit central, receive hooks are actually useful and you can do big branch remappings in a more seamless way than adding a git submodule.
I forget where line ending configs live.
P4 solves some of these things but not everything and adds its own headaches.
