ClearCase Support: Finding Branches on Version Trees
I am often asked how to find a certain branch from the command line. The command is something like this:
cleartool find . -all -ver 'brtype(BRANCH_NAME)' -print
This command will display each version that has this branch and start recursively searching in the current directory or ".", or you can specify only one element like this example:
$ cleartool find /vob/test/a/ -all -ver 'brtype(TEST_BRANCH)' -print
/vob/test/a/b.txt@@/main/TEST_BRANCH/0
/vob/test/a/b.txt@@/main/TEST_BRANCH/1
/vob/test/a/b.txt@@/main/TEST_BRANCH/2
/vob/test/a/cc.pdf@@/main/TEST_BRANCH/0
/vob/test/a/cc.pdf@@/main/TEST_BRANCH/1
|
However if you only wanted to find elements with a branch without listing each version on the branch, then you can run:
$ cleartool find /vob/test/a/ -all -element 'brtype(TEST_BRANCH)' -print
/vob/test/a/b.txt@@
/vob/test/a/cc.pdf@@

If you have any other ClearCase questions, please do not hestitate to contact me for free advice.
