https://www.linux.com – Enterprises looking to attract new talent would do well to figure out how to use git, since most new hires will come in with mastery of it and will find it annoying to use crufty older version control systems. Unfortunately, enterprises often have well-established release processes built around their existing tools, making it extremely hard to replace them with something new like git. Perforce, the company behind the Perforce version control system, is today announcing Perforce Git Fusion in an effort to bring the best of both worlds to enterprises and their developers.  It’s no su (Software)

But, I do not want to do it manually , I would like to ask perforce to do it in p4v (a perforce GUI).

It’s no surprise that the pace of technological innovation in the startup and web development world greatly eclipses the pace of technology adoption at most enterprise organizations. Enterprises are generally slow, risk averse, and demand long-term support for products in which they invest. Startups, web development shops, and open source enthusiasts move at a significantly faster pace.

Git, the open source revision control system, is already massively popular among developers. But Perforce, which focuses on software management solutions in both the open source and proprietary worlds, thinks Git can be even better.

I am using perforce on Linux.

When I did submission, I found that the comment about the status of the submitted file is marked by "edit".

//depot/common/mySpace/branches/mySpace___home_user_mySpace_project_level/myfile.cxx # edit

But, sometimes, it is marked by "integrate".

How to make it "integrate" ? Are there any benefits of doing this ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance.
