Forcing operations with the -f flag
Certain commands support the -f
flag, which enables
Helix Server
administrators and superusers to force certain operations unavailable to

Helix Server
administrators can use this flag with p4 branch

p4 change
, p4 client
, p4
job
, p4 label
, and p4 unlock.
Helix Server
superusers can also use it to override the p4 user
command.
