Synopsis
Print detailed information about files' revisions.
Syntax
p4 [g-opts] filelog [-i] [-l] [-t] [-m maxrev] file...
Description
p4 filelog describes each revision of the files provided as arguments. At least one file or file pattern must be provided as an argument.
The output lists one line per revision in reverse chronological order. The format of each line is:
... #rev change chnum action on date by user@client (type) 'description'
where:
- rev is the revision number;
- chnum is the number of the submitting changelist;
- action is the operation the file was open for: add, edit, delete, branch, or integrate;
- date is the submission date (by default), or date and time (if the -t flag is used).
- user is the name of the user who submitted the revision;
- client is the name of the client workspace from which the revision was submitted;
- type is the type of the file at the given revision; and
- descrip is the first 30 characters of the corresponding changelist's description.
If the action is integrate, Perforce displays a second line, formatted as
... #integration-action partner-file
See p4 integrated for a full description of integration actions.
Options
|
-i

|
|
-l
|
List the full description of each revision.
|
|
-t
|
Display the time as well as the date.
|
|
-m maxrev

List only the first maxrev changes per file output.
|
|

- Since p4 filelog's output can be quite large when called with highly non-restrictive file arguments (for example, p4 filelog //depot/... will print the revision history for every file in the depot), it may be subject to a maxresults limitation as set in p4 group.
- If both the -i and the -m maxrev flags are used, and a branch is encountered within the most recent maxrev revisions of the file, the most recent maxrev revisions of the file prior to the branch point are also displayed. p4 filelog -i follows branches down to a depth of 50 levels, which should be more than sufficient for any site.
- Old revisions of temporary object files (file type modifier +S, or tempobj) are displayed with an action of purge.
Examples
