P4V icons
P4V uses a variety of icons and badges (decorations) to depict P4 Server objects and their status. The following table describes commonly encountered icons.
P4V displays file icons in the Tree pane and throughout the user interface, with file status indicated as shown in the following table. Note that file icons might be displayed with multiple "badges" (for example, check marks, lock indicators), each indicating an aspect of the file’s status. This table does not list all possible combinations. Note that red badges indicate actions taken by you, and blue badges indicate actions taken by another user.
To display a tooltip containing
more details about a file’s status, hover the mouse pointer over the
file. For example, this tooltip indicates another user has an "exclusive checkout" on the variable.h file:

Depots |
|
|
|
Stream depot: A depot where stream An enhanced type of branch with a dedicated view for clients of the stream (see 'stream view') and built-in rules that determine how changes flow across the stream depot (see 'stream hierarchy'). A stream specification defines a stream. In P4V, stream specs are visible in the Streams Graph and the Streams tab. files are stored. (Stream specs are represented in the Stream Graph (see Stream hierarchy in the Stream Graph) and the Streams tab (see View and add tabs). | |
|
Remote depot: if configured by your P4 Server administrator, a remote depot maps a portion of another P4 Server repository as if it were a depot. Typically used to enable you to import and export third-party files without providing outsiders with access to your P4 Server. |
|
|
Spec depot: when enabled by your
P4 Server
administrator, a spec depot stores the history of changes to
P4 Server
specifications, such as changelists The changes to files or stream specifications along with metadata, such as the list of changed files, their version numbers, the submitter of the changelist, and the submitter's description of the changes. A changelist is the unit of versioned work.. |
|
|
Graph depot: A depot for storing files in a repo  , which uses the graph model associated with git instead of the "classic" Perforce file revision model. |
|
|
Workspaces |
|
Workspace associated with a classic depot |
|
Workspace associated with a stream depot |
|
|
Workspace when stream spec is checked out for edit | |
|
Workspace associated with a graph depot, which might or might not be a hybrid workspace A client workspace that supports both repos of type graph (see also 'Git Connector') and the classic P4 file revision model. | |
