Welcome to the Public Depot

The Public Depot was established to enable software developers outside of our company to contribute to the growing body of supporting programs and documentation of interest to Perforce users.

We've initiated several Open Source projects in the Public Depot including Jam, a fully portable alternative to make(1), and WebKeeper, an Apache Web Server module for accessing files in a Perforce depot.

You are welcome to contribute to any of the software or documentation in the Public Depot. If you're simply interested in seeing how Perforce works, you'll find the Public Depot to be an accessible model of real, distributed, concurrent source management in action.

About Perforce

Perforce can be used over the internet to track shared software development. A Perforce server stores files in a depot, and developers all over the world can submit changes to the depot. The orderly management of file changes and merges is provided by the Perforce SCM system.
