I have a weird situation with a cleartool find command in that it appears to 'change its mind' with time...

I am running the following command:

cleartool find /vobs/gmag_public -all -type d -verion "brtype(main) && ! version(.../main/0)" -print

My changes to folders are performed on my primary Solaris server and the find command is run on a replica Linux server, which is "synced up" every 20 minutes.

When I run:

diff history.20120124[b]092757[/b] history.20120124[b]110704[/b]

I get the following output (NOTE: folder-2-name-2 becomes folder-2-name-1)

> /vobs/zzz/xxx/Source/examples/deletes-renames/folder-1@@/main/2/folder-2-name-1@@/main/3

How is this possible?

Note the typo in 'verion'.

These are hardlinks, aren't they?
The directory was renamed between versions /main/2 and /main/3 of folder-1. In that case, assuming neither version is selected in your view, the name chosen would not matter, and the criterion for choosing one over the other is not defined...
