Changing Helix Server file types
Helix Server file types determine how a file is stored in the depot and synced (retrieved) to the workspace, and whether it can be diffed.
To change a file’s Helix Server file type (or other storage attributes):
-
Right-click the file and choose Manage Files > Change Filetype….
The Change Filetype dialog is displayed.
-
Set the desired type and attributes and click OK to dismiss the dialog.
If the file was not checked out, P4VS checks it out and makes the change.
- Submit the changelist containing the file.
For details about file types and attributes, see the Helix Core Command-Line (P4) Reference.
