describe -- Display a changelist description
p4 describe [ -d -s ] changelist#
Display a changelist description, including the changelist number,
user, client, date of submission, textual description, list
of affected files and diffs of files updated. Pending changelists
are flagged as 'pending' and the list of affected files and
file diffs is not displayed.
The -d passes a flag to the built-in diff routine to modify
the output: -dn (RCS), -dc (context), -ds (summary), -du (unified).
The -s flag requests a shortened form of describe that doesn't
include the diffs of files updated.
