<p>The Perforce Version Copy Utility(<abbr title="Perforce Version Copy Utility">VCP</abbr>)
is an outgrowth of the Revision Markup Language (RevML) project developed under
Perforce contract to Perforce by Barrie Slaymaker. VCP ('version copy') copies versions of
files from one repository to another, translating as much metadata as possible along the way.
This allows you to copy and translate files and their histories between revision storage systems.
