About P4V icons
P4V uses a variety of icons and badges (decorations) to depict Helix Server objects and their status. The following table describes commonly encountered icons.
P4V displays file icons in the Tree pane and throughout the user interface, with file status indicated as shown in the following table. Note that file icons might be displayed with multiple "badges" (for example, check marks, lock indicators), each indicating an aspect of the file’s status. This table does not list all possible combinations. Note that red badges indicate actions taken by you, and blue badges indicate actions taken by another user.
To display a tooltip containing
more details about a file’s status, hover the mouse pointer over the
file. For example, this tooltip indicates another user has an "exclusive checkout" on the variable.h

Depots |
|
|
|
Remote depot: if configured by your Helix Server administrator, a remote depot maps a portion of another Helix Server repository as if it were a depot. Typically used to enable you to import and export third-party files without providing outsiders with access to your Helix Server. |
|
Stream depot: A depot where streamA "branch" with built-in rules that determine what changes should be propagated to files in a stream depot, and in what order they should be propagated. A stream spec defines a stream. A user creates a stream spec by using either the "p4 stream" command or in P4V with File > New Stream. In P4V, stream specs are visible in the Streams Graph and the Streams tab. files are stored. (Stream specs are represented in the Stream Graph (see Stream hierarchy in the Stream Graph) and the Streams tab (see Viewing and adding tabs). | ||
|
Spec depot: when enabled by your
Helix Server
administrator, a spec depot stores the history of changes to
Helix Server
specifications, such as changelistsA list of files, their version numbers, the changes made to the files, and a description of the changes made. A changelist is the basic unit of versioned work in Helix Server. The changes specified in the changelist are not stored in the depot until the changelist is submitted to the depot. See also atomic change transaction and changelist number.. |
|
Graph depot: A depot for storing files in a repo , which uses the graph model associated with git instead of the "classic" Perforce file revision model. | ||
Workspaces |
|
Workspace associated with a classic depot |
|
Workspace associated with a stream depot |
|

Workspace associated with a graph depot, which might or might not be a hybrid workspaceA workspace that supports both repos of type graph (see "Git Connector"), and the Helix Core file revision model. | ||
