By "this issue" to you mean git-p4 being included in Debian?
(Debian = Debian main.)

That's not going to happen.  Someone could package it in contrib or
non-free, though.  If you have time for it, see [1] for pointers.

I'd be happy to sponsor once a package is ready.

* Package name        : git-p4
  Version             : 2.0.0-rc2
  Upstream Maintainer : Pete Wyckoff <pw@padd.com>, git@vger.kernel.org
* URL                 : http://repo.or.cz/w/git.git/blob/HEAD:/git-p4.py
* License             : MIT
  Programming Lang    : Python
  Description         : Tool for bidirectional operation between
                        a Perforce depot and git.

Thanks,
Jonathan
