P4, How to find changelist user from a given changelist?

Question

Hi,

Anybody knows how to get the change list user from a given changelist(say, #12345)?
p4 describe -s #12345
will give output like this:

Change #12345 by user@user_clientspec on 2010/07/26 10:26:29
affected files...
.......

Is there any command to give only the user name. Not with client spec as it shows user@user_clientspec.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks, Tom

Answer 1

I think you'll just have to parse the output.

This ungainly bit of powershell will get you the user:

p4 describe -s 12345 | select-object -first 1 | %{ $_.Split()[3].Split('@')[0] }

Answer 2

p4 change -o 12345 | grep ^User:
