How to Copy the directory and its contents from local file system to VOB (Source control)
I know there are commands (mkdir
, mkelem
) to create directory , elements and copy the files one by one.
But I would like to know is there any easy way to do this as there are thousands of sub directories and files inside parent directory?
Yes: you can use clearfsimport
, which is made precisely for that.
It will do the mkdir
, and cleartool mkelem
(or cleartool checkout
if you import new versions on top of existing versioned elements)

clearfsimport -preview -rec -nset c:\sourceDir\* m:\MyView\MyVob\MyDestinationDirectory

options used here, see "Creating a new subdirectory structure in ClearCase?".
