In Perforce how do you view history of all changelists in repository?

Question

I am not after history of a specific file but of the whole revision tree.

Solution 1

You want just a big list of all changelists?

At the command line:

> p4 changelists

For more detailed output:

> p4 changelists -l

To see more information on a specific changelist:

> p4 changelist [changelistnumber]

Solution 2

In P4V 2009.2 (at minimum) View -> Submitted Changelists allows you to filter the list of all changelists by folder/file, user, or workspace, as shown in the screenshot below:

Solution 3

If you use P4V

View the Submitted Tab in P4V or select the root depot and view the history tab.

thanks for your reply. However, is there a way to see the history in some existing user interface?

@Boris Lipschitz the View->Submitted Changelists menu option in P4V will show you all changelists. There's a similar option in P4Win. Alternatively you can try a tool like p4search: eddiescholtz.com/entry/perforce-search-released

Actually, "View -> Submitted Changelists" shows only changelists that I submitted. On the other hand, View -> History shows all changelists. I couldn't find this option in P4Win. Thanks for your help!

Huh. In P4V, it's completely different. History shows the submissions for a particular car. Submitted Changelists has a filter that defaults to your user name, but you can change this to any user or no user to see all submissions.
