[p4] Getting the size of a branch

[Robert Cowham]

I assume you mean size of files on disk (as opposed to number of files in
branch)?!

P4 fstat has the following option:

             -Ol     output a fileSize and digest field for each revision
                     (this may be expensive to compute) 

So process output of:

P4 fstat -Ol //depot/some/branch/...

C:\bruno_ws>p4 fstat -Ol //depot/jam/MAIN/... | grep fileSize | gawk "{s +=
$3} END{print s;}"
475980

Note that the file size for text files is only accurate with Unix line
endings.
