[PATCH] git-p4: fix fast import when empty commit is first

["Alisha Kim via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Alisha Kim <pril@pril.cc>

When executing p4 sync by specifying an excluded path, an empty commit
will be created if there is only a change in the excluded path in
revision.
If git-p4.keepEmptyCommits is turned off and an empty commit is the
first, fast-import will fail.
