perforce-client-spec

I want to create a client with the following view: //depot/location1/main/... //myclient/main/... //depot/location2/main/... //myclient/main/... No files and directories are common between //depot/location1/main/..., and //depot/location2/main/... But when I do p4 sync, it only syncs from //depot/location2/main/... How can I make it sync from both locations? Use this //depot/location1/main/... //myclient/main/... +//depot/location2/main/... //myclient/main/... The plus does what you are looking for, it tells perforce to add the files from that depot location to an already defined workspace

I am trying to access perforce and perform Sync operation from command line on Mac machine OS x 10.8.5 Can any one tell me how to access perforce for command line. I have placed p4 client in /usr/bin directory, From Terminal when i execute command : P4 or p4 help, im getting below error message. Perforce client error: Connect to server failed; check $P4PORT. TCP connect to perforce:1666 failed. nodename not servname provided, or not known Step by step approach to set up Perforce, will be greatly appreciated Note: P4V gui version is working fine, I need to execute Sync command from Command line

Following is the output which shows "client unknown" in place of client root. What is the command through which I can set the same? I have tried p4 client and p4 set but may be, with wrong syntaxes. BANL121b92746:Applications bagarwal2$ p4 info User name: bagarwal2 Client name: BANL121b92746 Client host: BANL121b92746.local Client unknown. Current directory: /Applications And is the value of this client root be the same as "Workspace Root" set in my P4V client under

I'm new to Perforce, need to work in command line, i'm so confused why all the commands on the tutorial websites all write like $ p4 command, but I have to add the port every time when try to trigger that command, for an example, for $ p4 sync, i have to type $ p4 -p myhost:myport sync every time even after I logged in, if i missed the host and port, like if i just typing $ p4 sync, the program will just hang in there... anyone can provide some suggestions? Type: p4 set P4PORT=myhost:myport From that point on, "myhost:myport" will be used as the P4PORT when you run commands. If you use

How to change perforce specs from command line? What I want to do is, i have a workspace whose clobber option is set to noclobber(default value). Now i want to change it to clobber. I know we can do it directly from p4v, but i dont want that. I also know that if we run 'p4 client' command in cmd, it will open P4CONFIG file in text editor, where we can change noclobber to clobber and save the file and its done, but i also dont want that too. Please tell me the specific command which directly changes the noclobber to clobber without using p4v or without editing P4CONFIG.txt. Thanks and Regards,
