One other problem, although somewhat minor, with labels:

Say you have a file called 'foo.c' and one called 'bar.c'. The tree gets labeled. Later, you delete 'bar.c', and then rename 'foo.c' to 'bar.c' for release 2.0. I don't believe Perforce can handle such a renaming problem correctly, although I haven't experimented with 97.2 yet. I know this is an odd situation, but with large code bases, problems like this are bound to arise.

I'm not sure, but I think that it will play out as follows: bar.c version 1 - initial version bar.c version 2-N - edited/checked-in versions bar.c version N+1 - deletion of bar.c Now, if you rename foo.c using the tech note on renaming, I *think* that you'll now see bar.c version N+2 - branch (new version) So if the original "bar.c" is in a label, it'll be a revision in the range [2,N+1] so that shouldn't be a problem.
