[p4] p4 triggers and tracking changes

[Jay Glanville]

On the subject of a library of available triggers, no.  Not that I'm
aware of.  Many people have placed their perforce-specific stuff in the
perforce public depot (http://public.perforce.com/public/index.html).
However, browsing through there, well, it's easier to simply ask here.

On the subject of making a log based on checkins, it would probably be
more flexible for you if you wrote a script that would generate a
"what's changed between X and Y" log based on change lists and their
contents instead of trying to write a trigger to accomplish the same
thing.
