When you choose Integrate... from the Action menu on the Files tab with a folder selected, you can use the resulting Integrate page to set up an integration to or from all the files in the selected path. In most cases, you only need to be concerned with the following fields on the Integrate page:

Current path: This is initialized for you. If you change it, terminate the pathname with a slash ("/").

Direction to integrate changes: Select the direction in which you want integrate:

Use corresponding path: Enter a pathname here. Make sure the pathname ends with a slash ("/"). This tells Perforce what pathname to use when looking for corresponding source or target files, depending on the integration direction you chose.

The "Integrate" button runs the integrate command and opens files for integrate according to the options you choose.

You can use the "Preview Integration" button to see which files would be opened. This is a particularly good idea when you are using integrate to branch new files, to confirm that you are creating files in the correct path. To actually run the integrate command after previewing it, click your browser's "Back" button to return to the Integrate Options page, then click "Integrate".


Advanced options

An alternative to specifying corresponding paths each time you integrate is to use a branch spec. A branch spec is a predefined mapping of corresponding paths. To list branch specs, choose Go To>Branch List.

Use branch spec: Click this radio button and enter the name of the branch spec. When you choose this option, any "corresponding path" you entered above is ignored.

The remaining advanced options are the same regardless of how you arrived at the Integrate page.
