p4 changes

Synopsis

Syntax

Description

The format of each line is:

Change num on date by user@client [status] description

If you provide file patterns as arguments, the changelists listed are those that affect files matching the patterns. Only submitted changelists are reported in this instance; pending changelists (by definition) have not yet affected any files in the depot.

Revision specifications and revision ranges can be included in the file patterns. Including a revision range lists all changes that affect files within the range; providing a single revision specifier lists all changes from 1 to the specified revision.

Use the -s status flag to limit output to only those changelists with the provided status (pending or submitted) value.

You can combine flags and file patterns to substantially limit the changelists that are displayed. Additionally, you can use the -m maxnum flag to further limit output to maxnum changes.

Options

-i	Include changelists that affected files that were integrated with the specified files.
-l	Provide long output that includes the full descriptions of each changelist.
-m maxnum	List only the highest numbered maxnum changes.
-s status	Limit the list to the changelists with the given status (pending or submitted)
g_opts	See the Global Options section.
