P4 integ: File not in client view
1 answer
To open files for a branch, they must be in your client view - "files (files) are not showing in client view" means they are not.
An alternative way to create a branch that doesn't require the files to be in your client view is with the "p4 populate" command (which skips the normal open / submit workflow and just creates the files instantly):
p4 populate -d "Creating branchA." //depot/trunk/... //depot/branches/branchA/...
Note that you won't actually be able to do much with this branch after creating it (like syncing it, editing files in it, etc.) if it doesn't show up on your client, so you probably want to add it is in your opinion anyway.
