I use the delete/re-add method -- but it suuuure would be nice if Perforce
offered a real 'p4 rename' command. (I really don't understand why they
don't, since I can't see why it would be all that difficult to do -- but
maybe there's some compelling reason that I just don't know about.)
Well, from what I read out of the database schema, it wouldn't be easy.
On the other hand, a lot of what perforce does is hard, and this
particular command would be _useful_. The delete/add and integrate/delete
hacks aren't good enough.
For example, if I'm integrating a branch into another, and a file on the
target branch has been renamed using integrate/delete, the integration
thinks the target file has been deleted, which simply is not the case.
