  30. <b>C4</b> was originally created to give <b>p4</b> a CVS feel, by allowing
  31. perforce clients to have writable files, and have <b>c4</b> locate
  32. changed files in a way similar to CVS.
  33. &nbsp;&nbsp;This has been expanded
  34. to correctly find arbitrary changes between the current top of
  35. tree and the client so that whole trees can be imported.
  36. &nbsp;&nbsp;This is routinely used to import updates to
  37. external source, including
  38. updates that can remove/rename whole directories of files.
  39. &nbsp;&nbsp;<b>C4</b> provides a control file that is placed at the top of
  40. each client to set environment variables, such as <code>P4PORT</code> and
  41. <code>P4CLIENT</code>
  42. (<b>p4</b> now provides this also).

  51. a license similar to the Berkeley UNIX license,
  52. such as that used in FreeBSD.
