P4Jenkins 'Save Configuration' does not support saving the configuration to a Stream depot

      The Jenkins 'Save Configuration' feature for Perforce (a Beta feature) does not support saving the configuration to a stream depot. This would be a nice feature to have.

      The client created is not associated with a stream by default, and an error "//backup/jenkins_config/config.xml - warning: cannot submit from non-stream client" occurs immediately. If I use the P4 command "p4 client -f -s -S //backup/jenkins_config jenkins_backup_workspace" then the client does become associated with the stream, but is unable to properly submit the files, erroring with "Client 'jenkins_backup_workspace' has files opened; use -f to force switch."

      I am unable to determine any way to revert the opened files without the client automatically becoming disassociated with the stream, resulting in the first error again.

       

      Customer feedback: 

      We’ve determined that adding the configuration to the stream is preferred but not really necessary in our case, so if you decide it doesn’t really logically make sense to implement then it’s not going to cause any problems for us.
