Launch a private p4d in a local directory?
If you are working with an offline repository in a local directory, vcp
can launch a p4d in that directory on a random hi-numbered TCP port for
you.
p4
yes
qr/y(es)?/i
No
qr/n(o)?/i
Directory to run p4d in?
Enter the directory to launch the p4d in. VCP will test to see
if this is a valid directory when you hit Enter.
sub { -d $_ ? 1 : die "'$_' is not a valid directory" }
Enter rev-root
sets the revisions root of the source tree being extracted.
guard="validate rev-root"/>
Run p4d flag
run a p4d instance in the directory indicated by repo_server.
Bootstrap mode export (Enter file wildcard)
Forces bootstrap mode for an entire export (-b ...) or for certain
files. Filenames may contain wildcards, see the Regexp::Shellish
manpage for details on what wildcards are accepted.
Continue Flag
Starts this transfer where the previous one (to the same
destination) left off. This uses the destination's state database to
detect what was transferred last time and to begin this transfer
where the previous one left off.
Follow 'branch into' flag
Causes VCP to notice "branch into" messages in the output of p4's
filelog command and. If the file that's the target of the p4
integrate (branch) command is revision number #1, adds the target to
the list of exported files. This usually needs a --rev-root option
to set the rev root to be high enough in the directory tree to
include all branches (it's an error to export a file that is not
under the rev root).
