The basic technique is the same as rename a file (see 'p4 help rename'). The trick is realizing that exactly matching wildcards work, too.

p4 integ //depot/project3.1/... //depot/project3/project3.1/... p4 integ //depot/project3.2/... //depot/project3/project3.2/... p4 integ //depot/project3.3/... //depot/project3/project3.3/... p4 delete //depot/project3.*/...

You need to make sure that your client view maps all of the source and target directories, though.

I looking for the best way to group a bunch of directories together and move them under a new folder. We currently have a bunch of projects under //depot and one of those products has multiple "psuedo branches" under the //depot directory. I would like to move them to a "root" project directory as to organize the depot. i.e.:

//depot /project1 /project2 /project3.1 /project3.2 /project3.3 /project4

into:

//depot /project1 /project2 /project3 /project3.1 /project3.2 /project3.* /project4

Also I assume that any label made previously based on any of these "braches" will update themselves. Over will I need to massage them some how to reflect this new structure?

Thanks in advance
