How to create a fresh Shelve Changelist in Perforce

I made some changes in few files (lets say F1, F2, F3) in workspace A. I shelved these changes (shelved ID#1) (no issues so far) and unshelved these changes to new workspace B (No issues). After unshelving in B, I made few more changes in files (F2, F3, F4 and F5) in workspace B. Now I want to move changes from workspace B to a new workspace C. Here I am facing problem.

  1. When I tried Shelving from workspace B, it listed only files F4 and F5 in shelved list (Shelved Id#2), instead of all modifiled files (F1, F2, F3, F4 and F5). When I do $P4 opened ..., it lists all 5 modified files, However, shelved CL takes only the files which are modified in the exclusively workspace B.
  2. I tried unshelving both the IDs 1 & 2). However, I did not get the changes made in workspace B in files F2 and F3.

How can I make my all changes (all 5 files) from workspace B to workspace C. More specifically, how I can I create fresh Shelve from workspace B which contains all the changes, not just the changes made post unshelving.

Hope somebody can help me with this quickly.

To take all the files you currently have open in workspace B, and make a fresh shelf with all those changes, do:

p4 reopen -c default //...
p4 shelve

The first command takes all your opened files, and associates them with the default changelist.

The second command takes all files currently opened in the default changelist, and makes a new shelf with those changes.
