Hi, I still need this. Since my P4 repo has "purged" changesets, I can't import without this patch.

I will have a followup patch to handle 'purge' file actions at some point, but it's not yet clear to me how to do it in the most useful and nonsurprising way. :-) In the meantime, this is a useful step.

When files are affected, the repo needs to be reimported. Since the commit hashes change (to include the previously omitted exec bits), all users must be informed to reclone as well...

Patch revised to address comment.

Should be combined with D1307.

Previously, flags were only stored in fileinfo when a file had some (either x or l). This patch now stores flags for all files; they're just almost always empty. In an import of 48K files, that's a lot of memory storage for nothing. There's also runtime overhead, because now we're always calling mf.setflag().
