Why isn't the depot path stored in config? Please > help! I'm not sure I understand why you want to commit to a different path... Is is just another branch in p4? In that case, git-p4 already has some support for working with all branches of a project, given that they all reside under a common path, like: //depot/path/to/project/MAIN //depot/path/to/project/REL_1_4 ... where MAIN and REL_1_4 are branches of 'project'. This can be cloned by invoking git p4 clone --detect-branches //depot/path/to/project@all When you are ready to push your git commits to p4, git-p4 will use the log message of the nearest parent commit from p4 to determine which depot path (branch) to use. In this way, you can commit your work to different p4 branches. -Tor Arvid Lund- -- 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
