Wonder how many folks would really not want to bring over all deleted files; seems like old sofware revs might depend on some of the deleted files you would want to bring over. In this case, just bringing over the head revisions or tagged files might be the thing (Cc'ing rev@perforce.com for more feedback).

I want to see the deleted files. That's the only way I can reconstruct an old version. Yes, the HEAD usually doesn't want them, but they are part of the repository's history.

I don't know how p4 handles deleted files, but bitkeeper handles them just fine, so I've grown to like them :)

thanks,
