p4 reviews

List the users who are subscribed to review files.

Syntax

p4 reviews [-C client] [-c changelist# | file ...]

The p4 reviews command is intended for use in external programs that call P4 Server.

Users subscribe to review files by providing file patterns in the Reviews field in their p4 user form.

See the Examples below.

Some users might want to be made aware of when certain files are changed.

To subscribe to review files, issue the p4 user command and edit the Reviews field to include the path to the files to be watched.
Swarm must also be configured for notifications of committed changes.

-C client

Limits the files to those opened in the specified client workspace.

When used with the -c option, limits the workspace to files opened in the specified changelist.

-c change

Limits the files to the submitted changelist.

The syntax p4 reviews -c changelist file... ignores the file arguments entirely.
p4 reviews is an unusual command. It was created to support external daemons, but it does nothing without the Reviews field of the p4 user form, which has a very specific meaning.

It is possible to enter values in the Reviews field that mean something originally unintended by P4 Server to create more generalized daemons. At Perforce, for example, we run a jobs daemon that sends email to any users who have subscribed to review jobs when a new job is submitted. Because there is nothing built into P4 Server that allows users to subscribe to review jobs, we co-opt a single line of the Reviews field: P4 Server sends a job email to any users who have subscribed to review the non-existent path //depot/jobs/.
The command returns no output if there is no object to report on.
