I am trying to list all the files that are under the Perforce system in a tree .
Can anyone please help me with the command that can list all the files ?
Ex:- I did p4 sync So I want to know all the files that have been added
If you want all of the files in the depot:
p4 files //...
If you want all of the files you have synced to your workspace:
p4 have

How do i download only the set of files that are modified in a changelist. I was able to find the list of files modified with p4 describe.
To sync them to your workspace, do:
p4 sync #=CHANGE
If you want to download them to arbitrary locations and/or stdout, see the p4 print command.
I have two files I tried to shelve with a one-liner that did not work.
How do I shelve multiple files? Below is what I tried.
p4 edit uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_m.sv uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_vc_m.sv
Made some updates before shelving these files.
p4 shelve uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_m.sv uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_vc_m.sv
Usage: shelve [ files ]
Missing/wrong number of arguments.
Thanks for any help.
p4 shelve [files] takes only a single files argument, which can include a wildcard. Try this:
p4 edit uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_m.sv uv5_ni_llp_rcv_crd_vc_m.sv
p4 shelve ...
Running "p4 shelve" without any arguments will "shelve" all open files.
Note well: You can still edit which files will be shelved.
The command will open a changelist description page in editor.
The description has a list of files which you can edit.
You can remove files from list, which you do not want to shelve/save.
I am trying to setup perforce. I installed p4v and setup workspace.
Then I ran
C:\"Program Files"\Perforce\p4 -p perforce-test:1500 -u test-user -c test-user_test sync //test-folder/test/
But I get error //test-folder/test/ no such files(s)
I can see files and folder exist in p4v depo.
Use the path:
//test-folder/test/...
Directories aren't objects in Perforce, they're just part of the file name -- so you don't sync a directory called "//test-folder/test/", you sync all the files whose paths match the pattern "//test-folder/test/...".
Use the “...” in the end
e.g.
Wrong ： p4 sync //test-folder/test/
Right : p4 sync //test-folder/test/...
I have some repo in perforce, I want to download only structure of folders without files, do you know how can I make this ?
Cheers
To learn about the folders/directories that are in a certain section of your Perforce repository, you can use the p4 dirs command (see http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.current/manuals/cmdref/p4_dirs.html).
For example,
p4 dirs //depot/*
will tell you all the top-level directories under //depot. Suppose the list that comes back is:
//depot/main
//depot/r1.0
Then you could subsequently issue:
p4 dirs //depot/main/*
and
p4 dirs //depot/r1.0/*
to learn about the next level of directories, and so forth, until you find no further child directories under the section of the repository that you are searching.
Once you have learned the correct set of directories that correspond to the current contents of your repository in Perforce, you can issue the corresponding mkdir commands to make those directories on your workstation.
I'm trying to sync only the files modified in a particular change list to p4v.
Suppose in a perforce directory //demo/test I have 10 files out of which only 3 are modified as part of change list number 1234. I want only 3 files to be synced up. I have tried below options but it did not work.
p4 sync //demo/test...#1234;
This command says the files are updated but i don't see the files synced up.
p4 sync -f //demo/test...#1234;
This command is syncing all 10 files in the directory.
Use
p4 sync //demo/test...#1234,1234
or
p4 sync //demo/test...#=1234
When running tests like these, remember that 'p4 sync' won't sync a file that you already have, which is why you found the need to run 'p4 sync -f' to force the files to be sent even though the server knows you already have them. If you want to clear the server's memory of the files that you have, you can run
p4 sync //demo/test...#none
which will remove all the (p4-managed) files matching '//demo/test...' from your workspace, and then 'p4 sync' will bring them back the next time.
Oh, and since 'test' is a directory, the pattern
//demo/test/...
is preferred to
//demo/test...
since '//demo/test/...' matches only the files in the test directory, while '//demo/test...' will also match the files in the '//demo/test1', '//demo/test-and-set', and '//demo/testarossa' directories (if those should happen to exist).
