NAME

VCP::Dest::branch_diagram - An experimental diagram drawing "destination"


SYNOPSIS

   vcp <source> branch_diagram:foo.png
   vcp <source> branch_diagram:foo.png --skip=none ## for verbose output


DESCRIPTION

This generates (using GraphViz) a diagram of the branch structure of the source repository.

Note: You must install graphviz, from AT&T (specifically, the dot command) and the GraphViz.pm Perl module for this to work.


OPTIONS

--skip=#

Set the "skip" threshold. use --skip=none to prevent skipping. The default is 5, meaning that the minimum number of revisions that will be skipped is 5. This sets the minimum number you should see in a "# skipped" message in the result graph.


EXAMPLES

    vcp \
      p4:public.perforce.com:1666://public/perforce/webkeeper/mod_webkeep.c \
        --rev-root= \
        --follow-branch-into \
      branch_diagram:foo3.png

The --rev-root= is because the presumed rev root is "//public/perforce/webkeeper" and perforce branches sail off in to other directories.

    vcp \
      cvs:/home/barries/src/VCP/tmp/xfree:/xc/doc/Imakefile \
      branch_diagram:foo3.png
