Question

I deleted a file from Perforce in the last month. Is there a way to retrieve it from P4?

If so, what command can I use?

Note: I’m not the admin for p4. And I don’t want the file back in P4 but I just want it in my local workspace.

Also, I don’t know the exact timeframe when I deleted it in last month…What command can I run?

I’m running P4 on windows. I’ll appreciate if someone can provide equivalent command for windows

Thanks!

You can use either the command line or the GUI, from the command line p4 sync -f forces the files to be resynchronized. For more information see the Perforce Knowledge Base.
