Anybody have a script or alias to find untracked (really: unadded) files in a Perforce tree?
EDIT: I updated the accepted answer on this one since it looks like P4V
The p4 fstat
command lets you test if a file exists in the workspace, combine with find
to locate files to check as in the following Perl example:
// throw the output of p4 fstat to a 'output file'
// find:
// -type f :- only look at files,
// -print0 :- terminate strings with \0s to support filenames with spaces
// xargs:
// Groups its input into command lines,
// -0 :- read input strings terminated with \0s
// p4:
// fstat :- fetch workspace stat on files
my $status=system "(find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 p4 fstat > /dev/null) >& $outputFile";
// read output file
open F1, $outputFile or die "$!\n";
// iterate over all the lines in F1
while () {
// remove trailing whitespace
chomp $_;
// grep lines which has 'no such file' or 'not in client'
if($_ =~ m/no such file/ || $_ =~ m/not in client/){
// Remove the content after '-'
$_=~ s/-\s.*//g;
// below line is optional. Check ur output file for more clarity.
$_=~ s/^.\///g;
print "$_\n";
}
}
close F1;
Or you can use p4 reconcile -n -m ...
If it is 'opened for delete' then it has been removed from the workspace. Note that the above command is running in preview mode (-n
).
