Perforce and `p4 diff2' against the origin
Hello everyone, Because my mpsafetty project in Perforce is going quite well, I'm considering running some kind of cron job to generate nightly diffs, so other people (interested friends, colleagues and others) to test my work. I've read `p4 help diff2' and it seems you can run the following command: p4 diff2 -b mpsafetty Unfortunately this command just does a braindead diff against the latest FreeBSD vendor source, which is not useful in my case. I just want it to generate a diff against the version I integrated. Is it possible to do this with Perforce? Thanks! -- Ed Schouten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WWW: http://g-rave.nl/ pgp22QmaNBE5K.pgp Description: PGP signature

Yes, this is an expensive command. You should rather check out the latest rev on the vendor tree before doing an IFC and record that rev into the IFC commit message. -- /"\ Best regards, | [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
