Simplify target depot path configuration.
It is easy to mess up the configuration of where converted files will go during a conversion.
You need to set TWO configuration options:
com.p4convert.core.depotPath= depot_name
com.p4convert.core.subPath=dir/dir/subdir
These options should be combined into one target depot path parameter
com.p4convert.core.targetDepotPath=//depot_name/dir/dir/subdir
It is easy enough for the converter to strip the "//" and separate the depot name
from the subpath, and generate the correct internal configuration.
I have seen several users get very confused with the current configuration, we should change
this to reduce support calls and make their life easier.
