Use multiple Perforce depots with P4CONFIG

If your project contains directories that are stored in the different Perforce depots, you might need to switch between them. WebStorm uses P4CONFIG to automatically switch to the respective depot as you use a Perforce-versioned directory.

P4CONFIG is an environment variable that contains the name of the P4CONFIG file without the path. If a certain directory is associated with Perforce (refer to Enable version control), WebStorm seeks for the P4CONFIG file in this directory and its parents; if the file is not found, WebStorm looks for it in the bin directory of WebStorm installation. When a P4CONFIG file is found, WebStorm uses the settings contained in it to connect to the respective Perforce depot.

A sample P4CONFG file might consist of the following lines:

P4CLIENT=MyClient
P4USER=MySelf
P4PORT=ida:3456
