Your client contains the mappings. It defines how the pathnames on the p4 server relate to that on your computer. In the example above file from the depot path //depot/project/path can be found in the directory of the p4 client in the subdirectories libs/project/path. > Han-Wen implemented also support for importing multiple depot paths at the > same time (and tracking them in one git branch). And where does he put the depot paths? As they are in depot? How does this corelate to the setups done by genuine P4 users (the poor souls) where the mappings are not always 1-to-1 right from the root?

Does python have some magic for running programs with system() when passed a format string? Like here: for f in filesToAdd: system("p4 add %s" % f) for f in filesToDelete: system("p4 revert %s" % f) system("p4 delete %s" % f) BTW, sometimes you quote the names, but obviously wrong (think about filenames containing double quotes): system("p4 edit \"%s\"" % path) editedFiles.add(path) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
