Work with shelved changelists

You can shelve a pending changelist to save its files temporarily without submitting them to a P4 Server. Shelved changelists are stored on the server and can be accessed from any workspace.

Before you begin

Your workspace must be connected to a P4 Server and you must be signed in to it.

Shelved changelist actions

The Shelves tab lists all shelved changelists that are visible to you, including your own changelists across all workspaces and changelists shared by other users.

For each shelved changelist, the following actions are available:

Action Description

Submit

Submit the shelved changelist to P4 Server.

Unshelve

Apply the shelved files to your workspace. To learn more, see Unshelve a changelist.

Delete

Delete the shelved changelist from the server.

Request review

Start a review in P4 Code Review for the changelist. To learn more, see Request and track a code review.

Diff against Have

Compare the changelist or a file in it against the have revision: the version of the file synced to your workspace on disk. Click Summary in the diff viewer for a single-page, side-by-side view of the changed blocks across every file.
