P4V edit first revision of integrated files before submitting
version-control,perforce,perforce-integrate
You can certainly integrate and edit in a single changelist. There are pros and cons to this approach: some people appreciate, as you pointed out, that the code that is submitted back to the main codebase contains the desired edits immediately, without requiring a separate revision to be submitted, while...
How do I fix a Perforce change submitted with the wrong job?
Here's how I clean things up when I accidentally associate a change with the wrong job: 'p4 fix -d -c <change> <wrongjob>' 'p4 fix -c <change> <rightjob>' That is, I delete the fix which related the change to the wrong job, and add the fix which relates the change to...
What is the difference between rev and haveRev with `p4 opened`?
They're almost always the same. They're only different in cases where you have explicitly synced to a revision other than the one that you are currently "working on". This is so that if you revert, your workspace will be consistent with what you explicitly synced to. Example: C:\test\999\depot\sam\i\rc\a>p4 edit foo...
Perforce: Cannot lock file error during a stream merge
File locking is used to coordinate and serialize those submit commands that modify the same files in the repository. Your developer's submit failed because some other developer has those files locked. You can use 'p4 opened' to see which other developer has those files locked. Typically, the files were left...
Trying to import existing Perforce Project in Eclipse
Import Existing Projects will only import Eclipse projects - which always have a .project file. To import something else you will first have to create an appropriate project in Eclipse with 'File > New > Project....'. Once you have the project you can use 'File > Import > File System'...

Get local location for Perforce opened files
p4 where will tell you where a depot file is located locally. You'll need to take the output of p4 opened and use p4 where to translate each depot path to a local path. This answer might provide some hints. Edit: Also see if p4 -ztag opened suits your needs....

how to sync locally modified file with server revision in perforce
If the file is opened for edit, and you have already run 'p4 sync', then you should have seen a message like: $ p4 sync //depot/main/b#2 - is opened and not being changed ... //depot/main/b - must resolve #2 before submitting What this means is that Perforce is ready for...
Perforce: restoring a branch to an old changelist and then restoring it to the current state
If you right click on a folder in P4V, you can choose "Rollback..." and pick 100 as the changelist you want to roll back to. Then at the end of the day, you would repeat that process and pick 108. That should leave everything as it was at the beginning...
Powershell_script resource throws error: “Your session has expired, please login again.”
The error message is a Perforce authentication failure and suggests there's a problem with your AUTOMATION_USER_PASSWORD_TICKET. If that's actually a ticket (it should look like a hash rather than plaintext), the problem is most likely that it's expired -- by default a login ticket is only valid for 12 hours...

Can a changelist only contain one file which is part of a larger branch?
perforce,perforce-integrate,perforce-branch-spec
Apparently the process was correct and the optimization was not necessary. However it is important to note that when you are merging you can opt-out contents that haven't changed.
Perforce submit with revertunchanged option gives empty changelist
The empty changelist is no big deal; you can just delete it if you want. But, you might instead change your script slightly: just before you do the submit, do 'p4 revert -a results.txt'. That will revert results.txt, but only if it is unchanged. Only run the 'p4 submit' if...

To "open" a changelist, run: p4 change CHANGENO This will give you the changelist formatted as a human-readable text file (a changelist specification). On the back end changelists are stored in a database, so there is not an editable text file on the back end that looks like this; running...
How to stay always logged in with Level 3 Perforce security (ticket based)?

How to configure TeamCity for Perforce Streams with remote builds?

I'm afraid, it looks like so far you cannot do this. The only solution is to create specific build configurations for different branches and use them for personal builds. Better support of feature branches based on Perforce streams is planned, and hopefully we'll include it to Teamcity 9.1 release, planned...

Is there a 'p4 have' equivalent in git?
You are probably looking for git ls-files This is not a complete analogue, since Perforce is so different from git, but it's my best guess.

How can I query Perforce for a list of users who have workspaces that reference a particular file in the depot?
First you'll get the workspaces, and then you can run through the list of workspaces to get the owner.

How do I change the client root from the command line for Perforce (p4)?

It's not clear why you don't want to permanently change the client root on your system. If you just want to work on this one file (data_summary.csv), and you want to work on it in a different location on your workstation than your normal Perforce workspace, the simplest approach is...
How can i find the changelist which made changes in a particular line on a particular file using Perforce command
You are describing p4 annotate. By default it prints the file with each line preceded by the revision number that the line was last changed. With option -c you can have the lines preceded by the corresponding changelist. Call p4 help annotate for more details.

How do I combine two files in Perforce such that the history of both files is preserved?
If you want to create a new file called "wug.cpp" that contains all of the others, leave a record of this in the metadata, and do it all in one changelist, you could do: p4 merge wug1.cpp wug.cpp p4 resolve (choose 'at', to branch the file) p4 merge wug2.cpp wug.cpp...

How to disable/deactivate/archive branches in Perforce

How to delete a feature branch (or any branch) in Perforce?

Is there a command to get file history of a P4 client spec?

Client specs, like other spec objects, can be archived in the Perforce "spec depot".
