description
PLEASE READ THE INSTALL SECTION COMPLETELY.
This is a fairly complete integration with the perforce version control system for the most commanly used operations,
including many administrative commands. It includes a great menu that is modelled very close to the p4win (the perforce
GUI client) and is quite extensive.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
Lately, I am not finding enough time to add features to this, so if anybody is interested to help me add new features or
even take over the responsibility, you are very much welcome.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
Install the files as described in the installation section below and read and type ":h perforce.txt" for help
on using the plugin.
If you find any problems please report them to me. If you happen to add new features or fix any problems, I would
appreciate if you send me in the diff. This will speed up the future enhancements (there is a lot more that can be done)
and also benefit all the script users.

install details
- Extract the zip file into your runtime directory (~/.vim or %HOME%/vimfiles).
- Download the latest versions of the below scripts and place them in your runtime plugin directory (see end for
instructions specific to older version):
genutils.vim: vimscript#197
- Start Vim and regenerate help tags on your runtime doc directory. Ex:
:helpt ~/.vim/doc
:helpt ~\vimfiles\doc
- Type the following command and read the installation section to complete the installation:
:help perforce-installation
For versions prior to 4.0, you need to download multvals.vim (vimscript#171) in addition to genutils, but make sure you
download only the non-autoload versions of both genutils and multvals plugins (see their download page for details, and
a trick to have both coexists).

perforce- 4.1 2006- 7.0 Hari There were a few issues with the 4.0 version, and this version tries to
4.1.zip 09-03 Krishna resolve them, and adds a few features.
Dara
- Fixed broken handling of <SHOW DIFF> in describe windows. But it is
better than before, as you can now describe multiple changelists and
show diffs selectively.
- For newer perforce servers, <Enter> on a pending change (in
changelist) showed the file list twice. Removed special handling for
this, which means for older perforce servers, you will see no file
list.
- Force a file status update on auto checkout.
- File status handling has in general been improved.
- Now executing command on multiple files that result in changing the
file statuses (such as add, edit, revert etc.) will correctly result
in their file statuses getting reset.
- While create a new changelist or submitting a change, the Files:
section is examined and the file statuses for all of them will be
reset. This also works for most of the cases of modifying a changelist
to remove/add files.
- This will also solve a long standing issue that reload during submit
doesn't update its file status.
- All windows are getting navigatation commands mapped (like in help
window)
- Workaround for one of the E788 errors (originating from the plugin)
during the auto-checkout. This part of the code has been cleaned up
and simplified. During the auto-checkout, if there are other users
editing the same file, it now results in the plugin echoing the output
as a |WarningMsg|. If you missed to read the output (because you
pressed <Enter> in advance), you can see it again using the
|PFLastMessage| command. The other E788 originating from Vim code
can't be fixed/workedaround, it has to be fixed by Bram.
- Fixed broken submit from changelist.
- When you create changelists, you can now safely undo to make any
further changes, and save them. This also works for submissions (to
edit description only), though you may have to remove the Files
section before saving the change description.
perforce- 4.0 2006- 7.0 Hari Uploading again, the previous attempt had a a file missing in the zip.
4.0.zip 09-01 Krishna
Dara - Using Vim7 features, so it is no longer backwards compatible with
older Vim releases. All the logic using multvals has been changed to
take advantage of the Vim7 Lists, so it should be a lot more cleaner
and flexible.
- No longer depends on multvals plugin.
- It is now autoloaded on demand, which means it will help your vim
session load faster. Read the impact on the installation due to this
change, |perforce-installation|.
- A new Cancel option for checkout prompt, see
|perforce-automatic-checkout|. The default for checkout prompt is now
"Cancel".
- The perforce/perforcemenu.vim needs to be loaded from your vimrc if
you want menu to be enabled. See |perforce-installation|.
- The plugin no longer removes the global user setting variables but you
still need to call |:PFInitialize| for effect of some settings to
propogate further. This should have no user visible impact (except in
rare cases). This will only make it easier to deal with settings. You
can still use |:PFSettings| command conveniently for its prompting or
completion features.
- Setting a preset to the g:p4DefaultPreset directly now works fine.
- Most settings can now be overridden at the buffer/window/tab level.
- Bug: PFRefreshActivePane doesn't work well on the diff windows (especially
when the ++c option is used).
perforce- 3.2 2006- 6.0 Hari Release 3.2 for vim7 compatibility. There are a few enhancements too. This is
3.2.zip 05-08 Krishna probably the last version that will work in Vim 6.3/6.4.
Dara - Fixed PVDiff to work with two filenames. The problem was only with
PVDiff command, as "PF vdiff" worked fine.
- PFDiffOff command is a lot more flexible now, see |PFDiffOff|.
- New command PPasswd for changing passwords.
- Don't confirm revert if -a or -n option is passed.
- Avoid accidentally loosing existing buffers while opening new ones
from diff and other windows.
- Recognize additional p4 commands as valid.
- You can now pass multiple codeline modifiers, see
|perforce-alternative-codeline-modifier|.
- Misc. tuneups for peforce diff hyperlinking feature.
- Misc. bugfixes in the menu.
perforce- 3.1 2004- 6.0 Hari - This version introduces the concept of overriding settints at the
3.1.zip 10-28 Krishna buffer/window level (an extension of the existing support for
Dara b:p4Options). Makes it easier to work with multiple clients from a single
vim instance. Currently only the p4Client/p4Port/p4User/clientRoot can be
set at buffer/window level.
- Now view mappings are maintained separately for each client. This allows
us to easily work with multiple clients at once. Also see
|perforce-buffer-local-options|.
- For diff hyperlinking, avoid refreshing the depot file if it already
visible.
- Now supports <pfitem> tag to mean the current list item. See |:<pfite>|
- New :PExec command to make it easier to execute exeternal perforce
commands directly, when plugin can't do what you want. See |PExec|.
- PFDiffLink and PFDiffVLink commands couldn't handle "diff -r"
output.
- If the current directory is not same as the directory of file being
resolved PFShowConflicts didn't work.
- PItemOpen in describe window now opens the local file, as PItemDescribe
can be used to open the depot file.
- Misc. bug fixes:
- Negative revisions are not working any more. E.g., PP #-1
- PW is not using the custom completion, so revision specifier (#1)
still needs to be escaped.
- While rerunning a command that opens up a new buffer (such as PD),
unexpected warning messages about matching an existing buffer.
Instead, it should silently refresh the output.
- Diff hyperlinking, prints the depot file everytime, this causes
unnecessary delays.
- PFRefreshActivePane would fail if there are filename special
characters in the command.
perforce- 3.0 2004- 6.0 Hari Now requires Vim 6.3 and the latest versions of genutils and multvals
3.0.zip 08-11 Krishna plugins.
Dara
Too many changes to be listed here, read the |perforce-version-changes|
section for details.
Takes advantage of some of the new Vim 6.3 features.
I recommend reading |perforce-troubleshooting|, |perforce-known-issues|,
|perforce-tips| sections. Many of the other sections also have been updated,
which are cross referenced from the version changes section.
Please report issues using the new PFBugReport command.
perforce- 2.0 2003- 6.0 Hari There are too many changes to mention here. Most notable ones being, the new
2.0.zip 10-30 Krishna online help for the plugin and the perforce ruler feature from Tom's perforce
Dara plugin which is now integrated into this with some improvements. Regenerate
help tags after extracting the zip. I highly recommend reading through at
least the installation, changes, troubleshooting and tips sections of the
help. I also recommend at least glancing through the rest of the help to have
an idea of what the plugin is capable of doing. I appreciate feedback.
Download the new versions of multvals.vim and genutils.vim.
perforce- 1.3 2002- 6.0 Hari - You need genutils.vim version (1.0.24)
1.3.zip 04-12 Krishna - Now the PSubmit and PDiff2 commands are enhanced. PSubmit can now take
Dara arguments that are directly passed to POpened to generate the list of files
to submit. So it is possible to say "PSubmit % #" to open the
template with only the current and alternate files or "PSubmit //depot/
branch/..." to open the template with all the opened files under the
given branch.
- You can now pass in filters at the end of the commands. Just make sure you
have a white space before the pipe. Ex:
PChanges -s pending | grep hari
- I added ^X^P command line mapping which works like the "E"
command but provides more flexibility. I also added ^X^I command line mapping
for list windows (such as PF changes), which inserts the current item name on
to the command line. Try them, they are very useful.
- New commands for clients, labels windows to create a new item from the
current item as a template (type P).
- In the filelist windows, you can now press p to print the current file and
S to sync to the current file.
- Another major change is improved command line parsing.
- Also the syntax highlighting has been improved to cover more cases.
perforce- 1.2.2 2002- 6.0 Hari Earlier, I have uploaded a wrong file as a zip file, I apologize for the
1.2.2.zip 04-02 Krishna mistake. I have deleted the old upload and am trying again.
Dara
This is just a minor patch release. Added useful WQ command which is same as
the W command but will also quit the window if there is no error. Speeds up
making changes to labels, jobs etc. You might still want to use W for
submits, as you can copy the output into your integration plans or something
like that. Also I made a typo in my previous release notes about the variable
name for passing default diff options. The correct name is g:
p4DefaultDiffOptions. Please use the latest version of genutils.vim which
fixes a typo resulting in an error message while quitting help windows.
perforce- 1.2.0 2002- 6.0 Hari - Perforce help window is now much better. It reuses the same window for all
1.2.0.zip 03-26 Krishna the help commands and maximizes too like the vim built-in window. It even
Dara restores the windows when you quit the help. Also navigating in the help
window is much better as the cursor positions are remembered.
- New command: PJobspec
- g:p4DefaultChangesSize to pass in default diff options to all the diff
operations. Set it to '-dc' to get diff with context.
- Renamed g:p4DefaultChangesSize to g:p4DefaultListSize. This is now used
even for jobs command.
- g:p4MaxLinesInDialog to limit the number of lines that should be shown in
the dialogs. Commands that normally show dialogs (such as PE) open a new
window if this limit is exceeded. This avoids showing too many lines in the
dialogs (such as PF edit ...)
- Fixed labelsync command.
- Fixed the delete in the list view. Now pressing D in the labels, changes
etc. works.
- <SHOW DIFFS> option on the describe window. Pressing <Enter> on this line
expands it to show diff.
- Some basic formatting options in the edit windows.
- You need the 1.0.19 version of genutils.vim
perforce- 1.1.17 2002- 6.0 Hari Fixed it to work on Unix, thanks to Kevin McCarthy for reporting the problem
1.1.17.zip 03-20 Krishna and a solution. I also added a basic syntax highlighting for the perforce
Dara windows (not complete yet). Extract the perforce.zip in your runtime
directory.
perforce.vim 1.1.15 2002- 6.0 Hari Minor patch release. Fixed PLabels command. Now O in PChanges correctly edits
03-19 Krishna the current change instead of showing the opened list. The opened list can be
Dara viewed by using the o (small case) command. Updated the usage header in the
file.
perforce.vim 1.1.14 2002- 6.0 Hari More featured, more robust, with more predictable results. Lots of bugs have
03-17 Krishna been fixed. Now, a command executed through PF or its shortcut are identical,
Dara so no more surprises (PF change and PChange are same). Thanks for the
suggestion, Man. The code is also much more cleaner now. I have also improved
the help header in the file, so read the first few lines for a good overview
of the script's capabilities.
perforce.vim 1.1.8 2002- 6.0 Hari Initial upload
03-08 Krishna
