Description

Display a list of depots.

Note

The list excludes

If a depot is excluded in the protections table for a given user, that user does not see the depot in the output of this command.

Operator users can run this command. (To learn about operator users, see the p4 user usage notes.)

Options

-e nameFilter

Lists depot specs with a name that matches the nameFilter pattern.

p4 depots -e h*x*

finds depots with names like helix and hxadm

This option follows the case-sensitivity of the server.

-E nameFilter

Makes the matching case-insensitive, even on a case-sensitive server.

-t type

List only the depots of the specified type.

-a Lists depots of all types, included hidden depots. This is especially useful when the user needs to check map paths for all depots.

g-opts

See Global options.
