[p4] Changing multiple files permissions

[Michael Mirman]

I have multiple directories that have +w (Always writable in workspace). How do
I change all files to keep all permissions as is, and remove the +w if exists.
Need the p4 command (I know p4 edit -t is per file type...). Some files are
text, some are binaries...

This worked for me:

-> p4 files ... | grep +w | awk '{print $NF, $1}' | sed -e 's/(/p4 edit -t /' -e 's/+w)//' -e 's/#.*//' | sh -x

Good point about the spaces! I keep forgetting about those weird paths...

I didn’t know you can pass the verb itself to "p4 -x -". I thought I had to say "p4 -x - edit".
Thanks!

I don't think that "awk $NF" is going to cope too well with
files with spaces in their names.�� :)
