2015-06-10git-p4: fixing --changes-block-size handlingLibravatar Luke Diamand1-6/+6
The --changes-block-size handling was intended to help when a user has a limited "maxscanrows" (see "p4 group"). It used "p4 changes -m $maxchanges" to limit the number of results. Unfortunately, it turns out that the "maxscanrows" and "maxresults" limits are actually applied *before* the "-m maxchanges" parameter is considered (experimentally). Fix the block-size handling so that it gets blocks of changes limited by revision number ($Start..$Start+$N, etc). This limits the number of results early enough that both sets of tests pass. Note that many other Perforce operations can fail for the same reason (p4 print, p4 files, etc) and it's probably not possible to workaround this. In the real world, this is probably not usually a problem. Signed-off-by: Luke Diamand <luke@diamand.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-06-08git-p4: test with limited p4 server resultsLibravatar Luke Diamand1-6/+23
Change the --changes-block-size git-p4 test to use an account with limited "maxresults" and "maxscanrows" values. These conditions are applied in the server *before* the "-m maxchanges" parameter to "p4 changes" is applied, and so the strategy that git-p4 uses for limiting the number of changes does not work. As a result, the tests all fail. Note that "maxscanrows" is set quite high, as it appears to not only limit results from "p4 changes", but *also* limits results from "p4 print". Files that have more than "maxscanrows" changes seem (experimentally) to be impossible to print. There's no good way to work around this.

2015-06-08git-p4: additional testing of --changes-block-sizeLibravatar Luke Diamand1-9/+47
Add additional tests of some corner-cases of the --changes-block-size git-p4 parameter. Also reduce the number of p4 changes created during the tests, so that they complete faster.

2015-04-20git-p4: use -m when running p4 changesLibravatar Lex Spoon1-0/+64
Simply running "p4 changes" on a large branch can result in a "too many rows scanned" error from the Perforce server. It is better to use a sequence of smaller calls to "p4 changes", using the "-m" option to limit the size of each call.
