Perforce is coming up with a new feature called "streams". Not mentioned when it will be released. But they are promoting that, this feature will enhances branch management and reduces merge issues.
What is a stream?
A stream describes about branch like depot location, owner, it's parent branch and more. It is a branching and merging application based on the perforce system.
Notable features:
· Streams provide a centralized control to manage project related workspaces. Just setup one stream view and link your workspace to that stream. Whenever stream view changes, it automatically update workspace views.
· Streams can be used to compute sensible defaults for merges· P4V is being enhanced to show streams in a slick visual flowchart, and to offer a simple interface for sophisticated stream tasks.
