"""
Usage:
       SetCFOpts form-out change "python /p4/common/bin/triggers/SetCFOptions.py %formfile%"

This script is designed to run as a form out trigger on a change form.  It
changes the 'Type:' field from 'public' to 'restricted', thus making
changelist metadata (description, etc.) available only to users who have
at least list access on files affected by any given changelist.  It
requires a p4d 2010.2+ server.

This operates only on new changelist forms.

Side Effects: This might have an impact on performance of 'p4 changes'
commands.  It is intended for environments that value security of changelist-
related metadata.
