How can I get a description of an added file in Perforce?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
For a command "p4 changes CLnumber#" I get something like this:
"...
Affected files
...
Differences
..."
It doesn't show description of added files. I would also like to get full description of files added in a given CL. How can I do that?

What do you mean by "full description of files" ? Do you mean a list of the file names? Or something else? And, is the command that you are running reallyp4 changes
? Or is it possiblyp4 describe
?

Sorry for being unclear. I want to display an added file. "p4 changes" lists changelogs for a given user. "p4 describe" doesn't display file added in a changelog, it only shows differences between modified files. I guess "p4 print" may be useful, but I don't know how can I use it knowing only number of changelist in which added files appear.

p4 describe -s
definitely should list added (and removed) files. Note thatp4 describe
won't print diffs for added/removed files, however.

I think what you want is p4 describe -du 1234
(where "1234" is the number of your changelist).
This won't print diffs for added (or removed) files.
– jamesdlin
Jan 5 at 6:11
...because added or removed files won't have diffs. It will, though, tell you the file was added or deleted (or moved).
