I debugged this and found the issue:
When the path case doesn't match between norm_cwd and norm_client_root the function returns None.
The solution is to call os.path.normcase for both norm_cwd and norm_client_root as below:
def get_repository_info(self):
if not self.p4.is_supported():
return None
p4_info = self.p4.info()
# For the repository path, we first prefer p4 brokers, then the
# upstream p4 server. If neither of those are found, just return None.
repository_path = (p4_info.get('Broker address') or
p4_info.get('Server address'))
if repository_path is None:
return None
client_root = p4_info.get('Client root')
if client_root is None:
return None
norm_cwd = os.path.normcase(os.path.realpath(os.getcwd()) + os.path.sep)
norm_client_root = os.path.normcase(os.path.realpath(client_root) + os.path.sep)
# Don't accept the repository if the current directory is outside the
# root of the Perforce client.
if not norm_cwd.startswith(norm_client_root):
return None
