perforce implementation of clearcase like "views" -


i have read through documentation on perforce , "branching strategy" advice well. 1 thing thats left me baffled, how simple concern not seem adequtely adressed. when working on project touches many parts of our code base , cannot checkin code @ end of day without checking trunk. need branch in situation? want able have ability have history of changes in long , hard project, can go when i make wrong turn..

the problem branching see creating copies of entire codebase .. missing obvious solution here? thanks

from standpoint of perforce server, branches aren't copies of files. perforce uses mechanism called "lazy copy" minimize disc consumption. their website, here definition of term:

a method used perforce make internal copies of files without duplicating file content in depot. lazy copies minimize consumption of disk space storing references original file instead of copies of file.
