How to: List all directories in a partial repository

[dwicks]

I am managing a large amount of binary data in a partial-mode repository. Gluon is able to list all the top-level directories when I enter the "configure" mode, but I can find a CLI command that lets me enumerate the top-level directories in partial mode. If I had a full checkout, I could simply run `Get-ChildItem . -Name`. But since I am in partial mode, I don't actually have any content in my directory yet.

How can I use the Plastic CLI to get a list of all directories that are valid options for passing to `cm partial configure +/DIrectoryName`? Thanks!

Hi @dwicks

As your local directory does not have information for the paths. You can try to get the information from the cloud.

cm ls / --tree=3@yourRepo@yourOrg@cloud --format={path} -R

The command above will print path of the file in a specific changeset(3 in the example).  -R is for recursive. For the more information, please execute the command below.

cm ls --help

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks! That list command works for us (I just omit the -R to get top-level directories only).

Using the status lets us get the latest changeset that we can refer to.

cm status --head
