Changes to the Perforce depot can
be listed via p4 changes. This will provide
a brief description of each change, who made the change, and
what its change number was. A change can be examined in detail
via p4 describe
. This will
provide the submit log and the diffs of the actual
change.changenumber
Commonly, p4 describe is used in one
of three ways:
p4 describe -s
CHANGEList a short description of changeset CHANGE, including the commit log of the particular changeset and a list of the files it affected.
p4 describe -du
CHANGEList a description of changeset CHANGE, including the commit log of the particular changeset, a list of the files it affected and a patch for each modified file, in a format similar to “unified diff” patches (but not exactly the same).
p4 describe -dc
CHANGEList a description of changeset CHANGE, including the commit log of the particular changeset, a list of the files it affected and a patch for each modified file, in a format similar to “context diff” patches (but not exactly the same).
The history of a file, including all submits, integrations,
and branches of it will be shown by p4 filelog
